May need math with torque angles, but works`
I used for head gasket replacement on a Subaru EJ22. Hard to get to bolts in car. This torque wrench was easy to use once I read the instructions through. Did great on torque both peak and track mode. Also the torque angle did well as long as you zeroed and pulled in constant direction. If you have to ratchet back it would add 7 to 10 degrees I noticed before pulling again (at least on mine it did). To over come this you can jot down torque angle before ratcheting back, zero torque wrench again and pull till you get correct angle (previous angle reading before ratcheting and current reading added together). I didn't find this to be much of a problem after figuring out what it was doing. I think this is what some call slop. I am not sure any mfr could work this out not to happen with the ratchet mechanism. Most mechanics may not notice as they do not have to ratchet back and pull again to complete a torque angle pull. Great product and well worth price and money saved over high cost ones. Thanks.

Great product
I bought this because the BMW engine I am working on required precise ‘angle’ setting. I did have some difficulty understanding the instructions as they are not well written, but after experimenting I figured it out.

great tool
got this tool off the snap-on truck for 20 bucks. had to try it. as a master tech. never had a digital torq. wrench. other techs said get the snap-on. nope, try this eastwood 1/2 drive out. work like a champ. does everything the over price ones do. thank you eastwood.

If final angle exceeds maximum torque of wrench,would this damage the tool
Yes, if you exceed the max torque, you will permanently damage the torque wrench.

I am looking for a torque wrench that will measure both angle and torque applied at the same time. I need to torque to a specific angle and then know the torque that was applied at that angle. Is this something this torque wrench will do?
Why do you need to know the torque at a specific angle? Torgue at a specific angle is not a spec that I've ever heard of in over 40 years in the business, as a Master Certified Mechanic. Torque angles can be estimated, and be close enough for every application that is not an all out race engine. I used a torque angle guage when Torque angles became relevant, but stopped using them due to the fact, they are mostly inaccurate. I use a bottle of white nail polish, and mark the head and the socket, knowing that each point of the hex is 60 degrees. If you are within 10-30 degrees, that's close enough. I've never had a head gasket failure, that wasn't the result of a defective gasket, as determined by the manufacturer. Use Fel Pro gaskets, and never have an issue.

Will this measure breakaway torque or peak torque being applied to loosen a fastener?
This is only designed to torque to tightness spec.

Where can this be calibrated if need be?
Unfortunately these units come calibrated form the factory and are not able to be re calibrated.

When angle torque is used, can you ratchet and keep track of angle if there is not enough room to complete the angle torque?
This torque wrench will keep track of the angle if you run out of room and need to ratchet back.
