| It would be great if someone can tell me what the "prescribed torque" is for that upper cap in this picture.

| Just Nipped up is all that is required , It isn't a "Working" part , and with the tension of the O-ring it is very unlikely to ever come undone I loosen these before removing the tubes from the triple clamps, and tighten (using an adjustable wrench with masking tape on the jaws to prevent marking the softer alloy hex) after refitting Just because it is a BIG thread and 22mm hex doesn't mean it requires a huge torque | |
