Description
Here you find the Snap-on TESI500A dial torque wrench, the plain Basic code with a single needle and a newton meter scale. For a unit that ships with paperwork, open the TESI500AC with calibration certificate. Both codes come from the same CAT1500i row, and only the documents differ.
Plain TESI500A or certified TESI500AC
First, Snap-on’s Newton Meter table carries a short note. Wrenches in the chart ship without a certificate of calibration, and a C suffix designates the certified model. So the Snap-on TESI500A dial torque wrench gives you the same 3/4 inch Basic tool for less outlay. In return, your team owns the first check.
Budget sense for a fleet of big wrenches
Dealers of excavators, loaders and cranes often run several service vans. Each van may also need its own large dial wrench. If the dealer already sends every new tool to a contracted lab, a factory certificate repeats that step. Therefore the Snap-on TESI500A dial torque wrench keeps the fleet budget lean. The money saved can then buy sockets, adaptors or a second size.
Where the TESI500AC pays back
Some mine sites and project owners refuse any tool without a record at the gate. In that case, the certificate code avoids a delay on the first day. Likewise, pick it when no lab slot is free before the work starts.
Snap-on TESI500A dial torque wrench data in brief
The TESI500A has a 3/4 inch square drive and a scale to 500 N·m, marked every 10 N·m. Also, it measures 29-7/8 in long and 3-1/4 in wide. The head depth is 1-25/32 in, not counting the drive, and the tool ships in a PB39 case. Snap-on places it in the Newton Meter Reading, Standard 2% Accuracy table.
Snap-on’s UK brochure defines that grade as within 2% of reading from 20% of full scale to full scale, in both directions. So on this wrench the band starts at 100 N·m. For targets below that, a smaller Torqometer reads better.
Working safely with the Snap-on TESI500A dial torque wrench
Because a long wrench works at high torque, it needs firm footing and a clear swing path. Pull with steady force through the handle, and stop as the needle meets your value. Moreover, never use it to crack loose a rusted bolt, as Snap-on warns. Also stay within its rated torque.

Service fleet questions on the TESI500A
Does the TESI500A hold the reading after I let go?
No. The TESI500A is a single-needle Basic code. For two needles, the same row lists the TESI500FUA Follow-up model.
Is there a signal light version?
Yes. Alongside the TESI500A, Snap-on lists the TESI500LA, which flashes a light when you reach the target torque.
Will an outside lab accept this wrench for testing?
Most torque labs can test a dial wrench the size of the TESI500A. Ask your chosen lab about its range before you book.
