30.3 Tightening torques for screw
connections
Only use a suitable tool, a torque wrench for example,
to tighten the screw connections as otherwise the
screws could shear off or break.
If you tighten screws too tightly, this could damage
the components
You should therefore always observe the prescribed
tightening torque.
Observe the minimum screw-in depth. For hard aluminium
alloys this is at least 1.4 times the screw diameter (e.g.
nominal diameter M 5 × 1.4 = 7 mm).
Whenever possible, you should tighten all safety-relevant
screw connections using a torque wrench. This indicates
the tightening torque in Nm (Newton metres) in each case.
›
If no values are indicated on the component, use
the tightening torques in the following table.
›
If the torque has been specified by the manufac-
turer of the component, this has priority.
›
Carbon parts must be mounted using a special
mounting paste.
Also note other information or markings on carbon
components regarding the recommended torques.
