Is this a serious torque wrench...

Ive used them sealey things at work. Do seem a little lightweight but we hadnt broken em or over loaded em. Don think we took em anywhere near the limits though. And the readings seemed kosher. And they are cheaper thant all our certifed ones.
 
Soon I will be changing the OFS wheel bearing on my D2 - I hope the "3 amigos" are due to the bearing failing.

I've read Urbanpanzer's writeup on this which highlights the need for a Torque wrench capable of 490 Nm.

Torque wrenches aren't cheap - especially 'big' ones.

Are these any good?

Torque Adaptor Digital 3/4"Sq Drive 100-500Nm STW292 Sealey

At £90 plus another £20 odd for a 3/4" breaker bar it seems too good to be true!

Also, seeing that the limit if this adaptor is 500Nm - is this in an accurate part of the tool's range

dont worry about exact torque its not vital ,just use a 2ft breaker bar with pipe extentsion if you need to ,very tight is ok
