According to the manufacturer they never need to be calibrated as long as they are treated properly. I have assembled several engines with these wrenches and have never had a problem

I wasn’t familiar with Warren & Brown torque wrenches, so I looked them up online. Interesting system; reminds me of the Snap-On torque meters I used years ago( and have recently re-acquired). Just may have to purchase one.
