Agreed.....but you can convert, just will have to get as close as you can with the in/lb or ft/lb scale.....
A metric torque wrench isn't all that easy to find....at least not here in WV....if you have a few extra dollars....and like really neat stuff.....visit a Snap-On truck and check out the new digital torque wrenches.....cost over $300....but you can select whatever measuring system that you want, digitally on the LCD screen......
