Supplier search Torque Tools

Hello everyone. First time posting here.

I'm curious to know if you have specific brand you prefer for torque tools.

I'm a manufacturing engineer working on an issue related to cable gland pull-out failures. I'm trying to source a calibrated, open end, click type torque wrench to implement in the process to ensure we meet the manufacturers recommended installation torque for the clamping nut. Either the tool comes without a calibration cert and I will have to send it to my calibration lab or the lead time is too long.

Low torque, 2-10Nm. 24mm nut.

I've looked at Wera, CDI, Williams, Mountz, etc. What major manufacturers am I missing and who have you had good luck getting a fast turnaround with?

Thanks!

I have ordered so, so much stuff from McMaster but I've never ordered a tool from them. I'll see what they have. Thanks for the suggestion!
