APPENDIX H
TORQUE LIMITS
H-1. GENERAL. This appendix provides general torque limits for fasteners. Special torque values are indicated
in the maintenance procedures for applicable components. The general torque values given in this appendix
shall be used when specific torque values are not indicated in the maintenance procedures.
H-2. TORQUE LIMITS. Torque limits are listed in table H-1 for fasteners. Dry fasteners are defined as
fasteners on which no lubricants are applied to the threads; wet fasteners are defined as fasteners on which
specific graphite or moly-disulphide greases or other extreme-pressure lubricants are applied to the threads.
Table H-2 lists minimum breakaway torque values for locknuts.
