Quick Answer
Yes! HYSF connectors have specific torque values. Standard series: 2-3 Nm, Heavy duty: 5-8 Nm, Micro: 1-1.5 Nm. Over-tightening damages seals, under-tightening causes leaks.
Torque Specifications by Series
| Connector Series | Torque Range | Torque (in-lbs) |
|---|---|---|
| Micro Series | 1.0-1.5 Nm | 9-13 in-lbs |
| Standard Series | 2.0-3.0 Nm | 18-26 in-lbs |
| Heavy Duty Series | 5.0-8.0 Nm | 44-71 in-lbs |
Why Torque Matters
Under-Tightening Risks
- ❌ Incomplete seal compression
- ❌ Water ingress at depth
- ❌ Connector loosening under vibration
Over-Tightening Risks
- ❌ O-ring extrusion and damage
- ❌ Thread stripping or galling
- ❌ Housing deformation
Torquing Procedure
- Clean threads and inspect O-ring
- Apply light silicone grease on O-ring only
- Hand-tighten until O-ring contacts
- Use torque wrench to apply specified torque smoothly
- Mark connection with paint pen for future checks
