HARDWARE INFORMATION
The following charts state standard plated hardware
tightening ranges for normal assembly applications.
Decrease the specified torque by 20% when using a
thread lubricant. Do not substitute lower grade
hardware for higher grade hardware. If higher grade
hardware than specified is substituted, tighten only
to the specified hardware torque value to avoid
damaging the threads of the part being threaded
into, as when threading into speed nuts or
weldments.
