Its funny that this comes up, we were just discussing at work that the habit of leaving a torque wrench set at a certain torque tends to send it out of calibration more quickly. We have to torque the cable clamps for our zipline weekly and its important that our wrenches are fairly on, too loose is obviously bad and overly tight will slowly cause us to deform the cables over time.
+1 more for with RTV just get it tight enough that you see it oozing out and the bolts feel snug. Burying the bolts all the way will squish out your gasket.
