Re: Made one out of workshop scrap to enable the correct tightening of SMA 's


 

Hi John

Used a wench of Chinese origin, was very lightly case hardened so was possible to drill with a normal HSS drill bit in a battery drill. Would never attempt to do so with one of US manufacture.

I repair a lot of kit that use SMA and SMC connectors and being a nerd I like to torque the connectors up correctly which in the case of SMA is 5 in-lbs for brass ones and 10 in-lbs for stainless steel ones..

Good going!

Did you drill that wrench handle as-is, or after heating and annealing so it drilled more easily?? Or is it not a drill hole I see
there?
