GENERAL
TORQUE REQUIREMENTS
The torque values in chart 9102 are derived from oil-free cadmium-plated threads and are recommended
for all airframe installation procedures where torquing is required, unless otherwise noted in sections where
other values are stipulated. Engine torque values are found in the latest revision of Lycoming Overhaul
Manual, and propeller torque values are found in chapter 6l of this manual. Chart 9l0l lists the torque values
for flared fittings of various sizes and material.
—CAUTION—
Do not overtorque fittings.
—NOTE—
When flared fittings are being installed, ensure that the male
threads are properly lubricated. Tighten fittings in accordance
with chart 9101.
