If a BM8 type auto switch mounting band is mounted on a JCDM series cylinder and the screw is overtightened, will the cylinder tube become deformed at the contact point of the threaded part?

Because the specified tool of the BM8 is a precision screwdriver, its construction makes it difficult to apply torque exceeding the specified torque during installation. In addition, the diameter of the contact point of the set screw and the cylinder tube has been increased to prevent the cylinder tube from becoming deformed.
As a guideline for tightening with the precision screwdriver, the proper tightening has been achieved if 1.5 to 2 ridges of the set screw thread protrude.
