GENERAL TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS
This
chart
specifies
torque
for
standard
fasteners with
standard
1.8.0. pitch threads.
Torque
specifications
for
special
components
or assemblies are included in
the
applicable
sections of
this
book.
To
avoid warpage,
tighten multi-fastener assemblies in a criss-
cross fashion, in progressive stages, until full
torque
is reached. Unless otherwise specified,
torque
specifications call for clean,
dry
threads.
Components
should be
at
room
