  • Case Bolt Torque Vaues

    I've tried to search this topic with no success. Could be operator error, I don't know....
    In any case (pun intended) I'm assembling my 42FL cases and I want to torque the fasteners. Everywhere I look I find "tighten good and tight". I'm not good with that.
    So does anyone have ideas? I can find basic torque values for most fasteners in general, but I'd like to be more specific.

    Honestly, Kart3racer,..

    "Basic torque values for most fasteners in general" is adequate and proper, if you apply them correctly.

    A torsion wrench will allow you to feel the 'creep' of the fastener as it tightens at spec.

    If you love your 'clicker', you're off on the wrong foot.
