Description
The Snap-on TER100 dial torque wrench is the plain Basic code in Lost in HCM’s list, shown as “US/ New. Met. Basic – TER100”. It reads N·m and ft-lb on one 1/2 inch drive dial. A twin listing, the TER100C with Calibration Certificate, adds that document to the same wrench. So the main decision is about records and cost.
Paying for paperwork, or not
Snap-on’s CAT1500i Precise 1% table notes that its listed wrenches come without a certificate of calibration. Adding C to the stock number orders the certificate version. As a result, the TER100 and the TER100C share the dial, the scales and the drive.
- Choose the TER100 when your lab, or a contracted lab, checks each tool before use.
- Choose it, too, for a second wrench that only needs a cross-check against a master.
- Go for the TER100C when an audit or a handover pack needs a document from day one.
Lift installers and the Snap-on TER100 dial torque wrench
New towers in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City need many elevators and escalators. Installation crews bolt guide rail brackets, machine bases and truss joints, and each maker gives its own values. With a dial, the supervisor sees the real torque rather than a click. Moreover, the N·m scale matches the metric manuals that many lift makers issue. Still, follow each maker’s procedure, because some joints call for other methods.

Site habits for a shaft crew
A lift shaft is dusty and tight, so carry the wrench in its case between floors. Also tether it when you work above an open shaft, because a dropped tool is a hazard. Read the single needle while you hold the load, since a Basic model keeps no peak. Then log the value before you move to the next bracket. Never use the TER100 to loosen a bolt, and stay within its rated torque.

TER100 installer FAQ
Does a version with a light exist?
Yes. Snap-on lists the TER100L in the same row, which flashes a light at the target.
What covers joints above 100 ft-lb?
The TER175 in the same table reads to 175 ft-lb, or 230 N·m, on a 1/2 inch drive.
Does the plain TER100 measure just as well?
Yes. It shares one catalog row with the TER100C, so only the paperwork differs.
