INDICATIVE* TORQUE VALUES FOR TIGHTENING FLANGE BOLTS Ft Lb (Nm)
Note:
(1) Torques shown are for A193 B7/B7M/B16/B8/B8M and A320 L7/L7M/B8/B8M.
(2) Torque tolerance ±10%.
(3) For temperatures above 750°F (400°C) use 75% of the torque values.
(4) Above torque values are with the bolts lubricated.
(5) Values above are based on 30,000 psi (206.85 Mpa) bolting stress and lubricated with heavy graphite and oil mixture or a copper based
anti-seize grease.
(6) Do not exceed by more than 25% of values stated when emergency torquing is required.
(7) All bolts shall be torqued in the pattern as shown in Diagram 10 to ensure uniform gasket loading.
(8) Optimum torque can vary depending on type of body gasket but do not increase torque more than 10% above those shown.
(9) Consult us for other bolt material.
(10) Most B8M and B8 bolts are class 1 so do not assume class 2 unless you are sure.
