GENERAL TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS

This chart specifies torque for standard fasteners with standard I.S.O. pitch treads.
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 crisscross fashion and in progressive stages until full torque is reached. Unless otherwise specified, torque specifications call for clean, dry threads. Components should be at room temperature.
