Basic Bolt Torque Spec's
Permalink  
 


                        Ran into a issue this morning with an employee repairing his locker ass'y  and over-torquing the bolts here is a basic chart for such matters - Saturday night before the races is no time for looking for the bolts ya just sheared from over-torquing . This is maybe on another thread somewhere but I didn't notice .

Where did you find this chart or is there a way of printing it off, just the chart from here?

Here is a PDF that can be printed. Not exactly the same as the one posted.

www.imperialsupplies.com/pdf/A_FastenerTorqueCharts.pdf

Or you might find a picture that will print out nicely.

Marten You can just copy and paste that into your word program and enlarge the font to what you want and print it from there..
