I had no idea these were available, a fixed 140Nm wrench. On my shopping list now but maybe find a Heyco supplier?

Local Heyco distributor is trade only and they didnt suggest a retail source, so £28.66 from local main dealer, hardly a bargain but makes life a touch easier with wheel changes having the torque fixed.
Delivery on Monday

Same price everywhere by the looks of things. BMW shop on eBay has it too. Great find too as I didn’t know such a beast existed either.
Very useful. Happier to have one of those in the car rattling about than my expensive torque wrench and case.

Echoes my thoughts. Carrying a full on wrench just for wheel bolts has always seemed OTT to me. Not the cheapest solution but a dedicated one thats pre-set makes life a bit easier when the need may arise.

But you looked twice, realised it wasn't 1/4/21 and thought, that looks good, i'll buy one.
I thought we may get a group buy sorted but postage is probably prohibitive regardless. Committed to one now anyway

Collected an hour or so ago, nothing to get excited about but well made and the socket is interchangeable, should 140Nm apply to anything else but needing a different size.
