That is the one I use.
And for $30 , used ones are a supreme deal.
Not calibrated does NOT mean it's inaccurate.
It simply means it's calibration sticker is missing or out of date.
Aerospace and other 9001 certified companies have to have ALL of their measuring tools calibrated every year and be labeled as such.
It's uncommon that a US made non-abused tool fails calibration.
So if it makes you feel better, you can spend $50+ to have it tested and a new sticker affixed with a new expiration date.
If you are bound by 9001 standards, you do that every year.
I have Seekonk torque wrench calibrators for 1/4" through 1/2" in both inch-lb and ft-lb ranges.
Every torque screwdriver I own was either out of calibration according to the sticker or had no sticker at all which means they are considered uncalibrated according to 9001.
They are all accurate and pass calibration checks on my Seekonk calibrators.
I'm not bound by 9001 so that's good enough for me.
Since I have the calibrators, I simply use the calibrator each time I adjust my torque wrenches.
