A torque sleeve for a coaxial cable connector that may include a sleeve body that at least partially receives a coaxial cable connector, and an integral sleeve portion having a plurality of tabs configured to be axially moved from a first position, where a portion of the sleeve encircles the assembled coaxial cable connector, to a second position, where a portion of the sleeve is configured to snap-fit over a shoulder portion of the coaxial cable connector so as to retain an axial position of the sleeve. In the second position, the sleeve may facilitate tightening of the coaxial cable connector when a torque force is applied to the torque sleeve.
