Torque Specifications
Measurements are made with lubricated components and a certified calibrated torque wrench.
Inconsistencies in wrench settings, lubrication and technique may not produce a leak free seal. If
leakage occurs, the torque can be increased to seal the components. However,
do not exceed the
recommended torque value by more than 15 percent
. If leakage persists, there is a component
problem.
Excessive torque can cause component damage or failure, resulting in potential
hazards to equipment and personnel.
