Cable Prep TRX-SL18 Torque Screwdriver
The Cable Prep TRX-SL18 Torque Screwdriver is specifically engineered for precision RPD and rSwitch installations. By delivering a designated, non-adjustable torque value, this tool prevents over-tightening that can cause RF leaks, water ingress, and potential module damage from localized over-heating.
Designed to ensure compliance with strict manufacturer standards, the internal mechanism clicks and spins freely the moment the precise torque is achieved. A reverse-lock feature allows the tool to be used seamlessly for screw removal. The unit features a color-coded and etched body for immediate torque value identification, alongside a rubberized ergonomic handle that minimizes technician fatigue. A powerful rare-earth magnet firmly secures the long, removable bit and torque limiter during field operations.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How does the screwdriver prevent over-tightening on sensitive RPD modules?
A: The tool is set to a designated torque value. Once that exact limit is reached, the internal mechanism clicks and begins to spin freely, making it physically impossible to apply additional torque.
Q: Can the TRX-SL18 be used to loosen hardware?
A: Yes. The internal clutch is designed to lock up when operated in the reverse direction, allowing technicians to easily use it for removing installed screws.
Q: Is the screwdriver bit permanently attached?
A: No, the long bit is removable. A heavy-duty rare-earth magnet inside the tool holds both the torque limiter and the bit securely in place during use.
