For hard aluminiumalloys this is at least 1.4 times the screw diameter (e.g.nominal diameter M 5 × 1.4 = 7 mm).Whenever possible, you should tighten all safety-relevantscrew connections using a torque wrench. This indicatesthe tightening torque in Nm (Newton metres) in each case.› If no values are indicated on the component, usethe tightening torques in the following table.› If the torque has been specified by the manufac-turer of the component, this has priority.› Carbon parts must be mounted using a specialmounting paste.Also note other information or markings on carboncomponents regarding the recommended torques.
