TORQUE - Another consideration in a
properly fastened joint is the twisting
force applied to a fastener. Table 7 offers
some suggested maximum torque values
for stainless steel fasteners. This table is a
guide based on industry tests that provide
maximum clamping values with minimum
risk of seizing. The values are based
on fasteners that are dry—free of any
lubricant—and wiped clean of chips and
foreign matter.
