Olsa Tools Torque Screwdriver Set - 10-50 in-lb Torque Range - Certified Limiting Torque Driver - Inch Pounds Adjustment - Precision Tool for Professionals - Part 1265

This torque screwdriver is an awesome product. I have two other competing products that I frequently use in precision electronics work and the Olsa is by far the best of the group. I really like the torque adjustment, it is easy to read and easy to set. I'm also a fan of the included T-bar that attaches to the handle and allows you to get the extra leverage you sometimes need at the higher end of the torque range. I also like the twist-apart case that it ships in which allows me to throw the screwdriver in my toolbox drawer without worrying about it getting damaged. I don't have a way to test the accuracy of the torque settings with precision, but I tested it against my other two brands and it was consistent with them throughout the range. The Olsa is heavier than the other two I have and feels like a substantial, quality built item. I highly recommend this particular product!

I bought this recently because I found myself needing a torque screwdriver more and more often for firearms and archery. This is being used for home use only for mounting scopes, disassembly and re-assembly of firearms, bow adjustments, etc. I already had an inch-pound torque wrench but the lowest setting is 20 in-lbs. and it's rather cumbersome to use for small, delicate work. This arrived today and I've used it on a couple of my rifles and my bow to re-torque some of the screws to proper settings. The scale is easy to read and set. Bits are easy to insert and remove yet stay in place securely. It does not feel or look cheap in any way. It is probably not as good as a $350 torque screwdriver but...it is not a $350 dollar torque screwdriver. For home use or even light, professional use, I don't think that you can go wrong with this one. In another review of this or a similar product, someone wrote that they didn't like the square handle. Personally, I like the square handle; it's easy to grip. In addition, it keeps it from rolling off of your table or bench onto the floor. You do not want to drop tools like this on the floor. Doing so does not help the accuracy in any way whatsoever. The reason that I gave it only 4 stars is that it does not come with a proper case. This is the only negative comment that I have about this product. The container that it comes in is fine for shipping or retail display but a flat boxlike case that could be provided at minimal cost would be nice. And I knew that it did not come with a case when I ordered it nV BMso I'm not complaining, just making a point that a precision instrument such as this should include a halfway decent case for storage and transport.

I like that the setting limits are clearly marked for easy reading. I found the handle comfortable to hold and use. When the exact torque was reached, the "slip"" released making it impossible to over tighten the lugs. A very good instrument.

So I broke my snap-on torque screw driver and saw this one and ordered and man it was here the next day! Such a life saver. This thing is pretty dang good it feels a lot better in my hands than the snap-on and seems to do a better job. A lot cheaper too! I can honestly say this really seems durable not too heavy and not too light so I was able to use it a lot!

Hi all, I use this for firearm maintenance and repairs to ensure proper (and accurate) torque values are maintained. It's very well built, accurate and practical to use for this kind of work. The calibration certificate is nice to have and the handle material is comfortable and resists feeling "slippery" when it has a bit of oil or grease on it. It's torque setting indicator is easy to read and simple to adjust and reset. The markings are etched and painted, so they won't wear off for a very long time. The included T-handle is nice to have but it's use is limited because it's inserted at the end of the handle. Using it DOES NOT bypass the torque mechanism so use it with caution. This means the torque driver cannot be used as a regular driver. I think it's a little goofy to have a T-handle leverage option to use with 50 in-lb of torque but since it's removable it's not a big deal. It also lacks a decent protective case- it comes in a plastic tube which is adequate for shipping but inconvenient for storage in a tool chest. All in all I am very glad I purchased this and intend to use it for years to come.

What a beautifully crafted torque driver. It's extremely precise, and in my opinion, the best, by far, torque driver I have used. This tool will last me the rest of my life, and probably my son's as well.

Works as expected. I had to order an adapter for my socket heads to work with the square drive of this unit.

I bought this based on reviews. This had the best but I’m a bit disappointed for the following reasons: 1). The handle is square. In my experience, only cheap tools have a square handle. A gimmick to sell it. 2). No real case. It comes in a round case that looks like it would be used for display. Competitors have a formed plastic case where you lay the tool in horizontal and store it until used. This case should be hung from a hook. 3). I did not like the feel of inserting the bit bit. The pin inside seemed too stiff. Initially, I didn’t push the bit in far enough and it kept falling out. I had to actually read the instructions looking for something telling me how to insert the bit. There was nothing there, so I just forced it in. My fear was that it would be difficult to remove, but this was not the case, as it came out easy. It worked as it should, but I didn’t like the feel of it In summary, I am experienced with many tools, but I am an amateur with this type of tool, so I relied on reviews. Others gave it high review, which is why I bought it, but it does not feel as high quality as I expected.
