Rega Apheta 3 on Rega Planar 8:  Any idea on screws torque values ?
Rega does sell a torque wrench. It's $275 USD. It's included with their Aphelion 2 cartridge but available separately on Music Direct and other audio websites. I don't see it listed on the Rega website however.

rega P8 Ania pro setup questions
@ejlif I was in your situation with the P8 and Ania Pro and decided at the time to upgrade the cartridge to the Apheta 3. What a revelation that was! The Apheta 3 is an excellent cartridge and took the P8 to the next level. I eventually found an ...
