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