When using the torque data in the
chart, the following rules should be
observed:
• Bolt manufacturer’s particular
specifications should be consulted
when provided.
• Flat washers of equal strength
must be used.
• All torque measurements are
given in foot-pounds. To convert
to inch-pounds, multiply by 12.
• Torque values specified are for
bolts with residual oils or no special
lubricants applied.
• Torque values for socket-head
capscrews are the same as for
Grade 8 capscrews.
• Do not use these values if a different torque value or tightening
procedure is given for a specific application. Torque values listed are for general use
only. Check tightness of fasteners periodically.
• Shear bolts are designed to fail under predetermined loads. Always replace shear bolts
with identical grade.
• Fasteners should be replaced with the same or higher grade. If higher grade fasteners
are used, these should only be tightened to the strength of the original.
• Tighten plastic insert or crimped steel-type lock nuts to approximately 110 percent of the
dry torque values shown in the chart below, applied to the nut, not to the bolt head.
Tighten toothed or serrated-type lock nuts to the full torque value. Note: “Lubricated”
means coated with a lubricant such as engine oil, or fasteners with phosphate and oil
coatings. “Dry” means plain or zinc plated without lubrication. Tighten lubricated bolts
to approximately 80% of dry bolts.
