Man: Here's a plumbing lesson I just learned. Stop tightening one turn before it breaks.
A torque wrench might help, if there’s room for one.
Stop one turn before it breaks? That’s like trying to judge the bottom of a stock market.
..and make sure your elbow has been calibrated..
“How tight should I make it?” “Tighten it up till it strips, then back off half a turn.”
Be sure to adjust for the proper torque setting on your pipe wrench.
Just use German torque.
