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