22 –  General tightening torque
22.1  General
Millimetre threads M3 to M24. The following applies under ideal 
conditions, e.g. steel against steel.
Note!
Experience has shown that if you adjust the torque wrench to the 
values for untreated bolts, you will also achieve the correct torque 
value for galvanised bolts. Do not tighten more than the values set 
out in the tables otherwise the bolts may be destroyed.
22.2  Galvanised non-oiled bolts
22.3  Untreated, oiled bolts
