Bolt Torque for Metric bolts *

Torque figures indicated are valid for non-greased or non-oiled threads and heads unless otherwise specified. Therefore, do not grease or oil bolts or capscrews unless otherwise specified in this manual. When using locking elements, increase torque values

by 5%.

*GRADE or CLASS value for bolts and capscrews are identified by their head markings.
