Description
The Snap-on TE12FUA Torqometer on this page is the plain code, listed by Lost in HCM as a U.S. Follow-up dial wrench. Lost in HCM also offers the TE12FUAC version with Chart for buyers who want that extra item. The wrench itself, with its 3/8 inch drive and 150 in-lb dial, stays the same. So start with your verification plan.
Why the TE12FUA carries no C
A note in Snap-on’s CAT1500i catalog says the wrenches in its Torqometer chart do not include a certificate of calibration. Buyers who want one add a C to the stock number. Therefore the TE12FUA, as printed in the table, is the version without that document. Its C twin keeps the same dial, drive and case.
Sites that verify a Snap-on TE12FUA Torqometer themselves
Many electronics and appliance plants in Vietnam run a torque tester in their own metrology room. They check each new wrench, then issue an internal label and record. For them, the Snap-on TE12FUA Torqometer avoids a document that the lab would repeat. In addition, a line that needs five or six wrenches saves on every station. That money can fund adaptors, bits or the tester’s own recall.
When the TE12FUAC is the safer pick
- Your metrology room cannot cover the 150 in-lb range yet.
- A customer audit lands before your lab can check the new tools.
- Your procedure blocks any gauge that arrives without a document.
Snap-on TE12FUA Torqometer row in CAT1500i
| Item | CAT1500i value |
|---|---|
| Square drive | 3/8 in |
| Range | 150 in-lb |
| Increments | 2-1/2 in-lb |
| Length / width | 9-29/32 in / 2-11/16 in |
| Head depth (without drive) | 1-1/4 in |
| Storage case | PB9 |
| Dial | Follow-up, two needles |
Basic and signal versions share the catalog row as TE12A and TE12LA. All three belong to the US Reading/Standard 2% Accuracy table.
Two needles on a light scale
On a Follow-up model, one needle marks the target and the other shows the torque reached. So the operator can compare the two at a glance. Also, 150 in-lb equals 12.5 ft-lb, or about 17 N·m. The Snap-on UK brochure suggests that your working range falls near the middle of the scale. Finally, stay within rated torque, and keep the TE12FUA out of loosening jobs.

TE12FUA verification FAQ
Can my own lab issue the record for a TE12FUA?
That depends on your quality system. Many plants accept an internal check, while others require an outside lab report.
Does the TE12FUA have a signal light?
No. It uses two needles instead. Snap-on lists the TE12LA as the signal model on the same row.
Will the TE12FUA suit 20 in-lb screws?
It reaches that value. However, the UK brochure warns against working below 20% of full scale, which is 30 in-lb here. So a smaller dial fits better.
