700/900 TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS

When tightening bolts, nuts, or screws, a torque pattern should
be followed to ensure uniform equal tension is applied to all
fasteners. Proper torque application prevents fasteners from
loosening or breaking in critical service. It also minimizes
wear and eliminates premature or needless repair costs.
Following uniform torque application sequence patterns
ensures optimum performance from precision machined, close
tolerance assemblies.
The most common units of torque in the English system are ft-
lb (foot pounds) and in-lb (inch pounds). In the Metric system,
torque is commonly expressed in units of Nm (Newton Meter).
