Torque wrenches for F connectors
The surface on top of taps and on some F-female connectors is often out of level (i.e. on passives with diecast taps). They should be plane and smooth. The surface on such interfaces will - after a while with temperature shifts - be stabilized, which can lead to "loose" installed connectors and the potential problems mentioned below, if not installed with a proper torque.
Corning Cabelcon recommends the use of torque wrench spanners when installing F-connectors in order to ensure an installation in accordance to SCTE* standards for a long lifetime connection with the highest performance.
The use of torque wrench spanners minimizes the risk of heavy screening leakage, moisture ingress and poor return loss caused by loose connectors. This can lead to corrosion, loss of signals, interference, ghost pictures and heavy disturbances in CATV networks with return path capability.
