Phono cartridge torque wrench

Hi Guys & Gals

Do any of you use a torque wrench when tightening your cartridge to your tonearm or do you just use a regular screwdriver or Allen key?

Thank you
Scot

Especially if you have cartridge body with treated holes, you can damage it forever. Use ONLY small tool provided with cartridge. Use plastic washer under the screw.
