NOTE: To produce this table I converted directly from N-m to Lb-ft, and then from N-m to Lb-In to eliminate any rounding errors. Torque values over 30 N-m were not converted to Lb-in because few. If any, ¼ drive torque wrenches will measure that high. JD
Items in ***RED*** are unknown to me – can someone please tell me what they are, in American terms, so I can update the page?
Here is a link to the original Word document, so you can edit, add, or delete entries, as you wish. It "should be" virus free, but I can make no guarantees so please scan it before opening!
