PCT Torque Tool for F ConnectorsPink

The patent pending PCT Indoor Torque Tool (PCT-TT) has been developed to be used on all consumer electronics devices within the home. These devices (i.e. television monitors, settop boxes, modems, and MTA's) are typically terminated with "hand tightened" F-connectors. The female F-ports on such devices are not designed to withstand the excessive torque applied when using a wrench. Because of this, cable technicians and installers are advised not to wrench tighten connectors onto consumer electronics devices. Whether used by a cable technician or cable subscriber, the torque value achieved is consistently ideal for terminations to all consumer electronics devices. Eight to ten inch-pounds of torque is significantly better (shielding performance, signal loss) than "finger tight", and will not result in damage to the female F-port. When coupled with a PCT torque retaining connector, the result is a connection that achieves, and permanently maintains, an optimal torque value.
Tightens F-Connectors Right The First Time and Every Time. PCT indoor torque tool is great for connecting coax connectors to consumer electronic devices with the proper amount of torque.
