Use Proper SMA Connector Care and Connection Techniques
Final Connection Using a Torque Wrench
Using a torque wrench guarantees the connection is not too tight, preventing
possible connector damage. It also guarantees that all connections are equally
tight. Prevent the rotation of anything other than the connector nut that you are
tightening.
Use a Keysight 8710-1582, 0.56N-m (5 lb-in) 5/16 inch break-over torque
wrench to make a final connection. A Torque wrench is supplied as part of the
PD1000A-SPK Accessory Kit.

1
Turn the connector nut. This may be possible to do by hand if one of the
connectors is fixed (as on a test port). However, it is recommended that you
use a second open-end wrench to keep the body of the device from turning.
2
Position both wrenches within 90 degrees of each other before applying force.
Wrenches opposing each other (greater than 90 degrees apart) will cause a
lifting action that can misalign and stress the connections of the device
involved. This is especially true when several devices are connected together.
Refer to the following figure.
