I have a couple of those plastic SMA connector tighteners
down in the lab. I think they are trade show props
for handing out to visitors. Don't recall seeing
a manufacturer name on them - just the name of the
company who paid for the promo. A quick Google Search
didn't turn up anything either. You'd think they
would be east to find.

Greetings:
UPDATE 4/17/2014: Bracke Manufacturing now offers an
SMA Finger Wrench! Like a lot of people, I have one
of those plastic SMA tools as well, but mine says
Agilent on it, and they don't make them either.
I sent an e-mail to LeCroy to see where they get
the ones they include with a couple of their instruments.
No reply thus far. All-around good guy
Bob Davis
sent me a link for another type of SMA connector
tool that someone might be interested in. It is
made by a company called
Mountz.
Other sizes are available as well. Speaking
of SMA connectors, take a look at the spacing of
the ones on this new
SP5T RF
switch by Narda Microwave East. Note
that the adjoining sides of the connector flanges
share a mounting screw where the ends have been
milled off. Now that is tight spacing!
