Torque settings

Hi all,


Obviously, where available we use manufacturer's torque settings for connections. But where do they get them from?


I ask this not least because it's not always easy to obtain, at least in a timely fashion, but also because I appear to have conflicting instructions on some OEM'd equipment (comparing the original manufacturer with the wrapped supplier) or notably different settings when using the same lug onto a very similar terminal bar from a different supplier. It would also be helpful to be able to sense-check the answers for misplaced decimal points.

  • M10 and 60 Nm - that needs to be a high tensile bolt!


    Another consideration, at least at the smaller end of things is the type of screw head. With slot or cross-head, one has to be very careful that the driver does not slip, and even worse, chamble the head. Hex slot better, Torx better still.
