Service Torque values (all of them.. nearly)

Setting out to giving the Blade a full detail and service.

As I'm super bored so compiled the torque values to the bolts and nuts we commonly remove.
It's a single A4 sheet PDF so go ahead print/ laminate and hang in your man/lady cave!

Yes, you can do it by feel, but I'm seriously hench and so do not know my own strength





edit added the original excel spreadsheet if you want to customise

 

doh noticed an error

flanged collar should be on the left side (sprocket side) update attached in original post

 

Good effort much appreciated

 

Am I the only one that has only used a torque wrench once in their life.

 

Got a new torque wrench in the post today & I think it's faulty, Set it to 79nm for front axle bolt & it didn't click, even when I knew it was tighter than needed. Lowered the setting to 20nm & still no clicking sound, so back to sender it's going. Ordered a Sealey AK623B. Will see if this fares any better.

 

Thanks for this slick

 

What brand was the faulty wrench? Have you considered a Halfords torque wrench? They are very good quality. Decent price too if you have a trade card.

 

It was a Neilsen. Cheap. But I only need something that I will probably only use a couple of times. Hopefully I have better luck with the Sealey one.

My torque wrench set is Teng tools, very good quality without busting the bank.
I have a cheapo for 100NM+ this is only used on the rear axle nut!

A friend of mine used to check the calibration on a tester and they were very consistent

 

I used to be in the party of just 'nipping', to be fair only sheared/stripped 1 or 2 bolts ever.

Whats the consensus on the impact of dry fitting vs antiseize/greasing on torque values?

 

Just to note, I have a trade card and am happy to supply prices and order online for anyone on the forums behalf

 

hi, very good.
Just would remind, Honda don't differentiate between wet and dry torques. I assume they mean dry as that's how the factory build them.
Accordingly, I'd suggest never exceeding these figures, and depending on your own confidence use a little lower value.

 

An electronic torque adaptor is very useful to confirm wrench accuracy. I have a certified 20kg weight I use to calibrate a scale, and then the scale to weigh water in a bucket to calibrate the wrench.

 

Huge area of debate, wet v dry torques. Can vary by as much as 30%. Furthermore, a new threaded fitting can settle to a different clamping force once reused.
