Standard Torque Chart

NOTE: Torques are for rigid joints, or joints meeting the
following conditions:
Damage will not occur to joined members of an assembly.
It is desirable to use a higher clamping force.
Fastener threads are NOT lubricated prior to assembly.
The following conditions will require a torque value
different than stated above:
Reduced torque required; non-parallel clamping surfaces,
thick or highly compressible gaskets are used, or when a
higher torque may damage joined assemblies.
Clip nuts, weld nuts, self-tapping hardware, or any
condition that causes reduced thread engagement will
warrant a torque less than stated above.
Special torque values, stated in this manual, must be
strictly adhered to as stated in the specific operation.
NOTE: A number of special torques are used in
assembly of tractors. See list.
