30.3 Tightening torques for screw
connections
Only use a suitable tool, a torque wrench for example,
to tighten the screw connections as otherwise the
screws could shear o or break.
If you tighten screws too tightly, this could damage
the components
You should therefore always observe the prescribed
tightening torque.
Observe the minimum screw-in depth. For hard aluminium
alloys this is at least 1.4 times the screw diameter (e.g.
nominal diameter M 5 × 1.4 = 7mm).
Whenever possible, you should tighten all safety-relevant
screw connections using a torque wrench. This indicates
the tightening torque in Nm (Newton metres) in each case.
› If no values are indicated on the component, use
the tightening torques in the following table.
› If the torque has been specied by the manufac-
turer of the component, this has priority.
› Carbon parts must be mounted using a special
mounting paste.
Also note other information or markings on carbon
components regarding the recommended torques.
