I asked a similar question not long ago. Advice was to have recalibrated by Snap On dealer. Checked with a friend who has a Snap On rep call on his shop weekly. He said the Snap On rep told him no way he could provide this service(of course he would be happy to sell me one of his new high dollar wrenches) Still searching for somebody to recalibrate my Craftsman.

With the government it’s generally about twice a year.

Some of them are 3 times some of them are 1. I’m honestly not sure how the schedule is determined. I assume it’s recommendations from the OEM of the tool itself.

As was mentioned earlier, if you drop it you have to take it out of service.

Also they need to be stored at their lowest torque setting which most hobbyists probably don’t do. The calibration team stresses that. They say long term they see more wrenches damaged from improper storage than anything else.

I'm sending both my 3/8" and 1/2" craftsmans to Transcat in Houston and their number is 800-828-1470. They have labs all over the country.
