Table 1-12: UNC (Coarse) Thread: Torque Values for
Stainless Steel Fasteners with Oil Lubrication
NOTE: Stainless steel fasteners tend to gall while being
tightened. To reduce this risk, lubricate the threads
with oil or molybdenum disulfide and torque at low
speeds without interruptions. Do not use excessive
pressure. Impact wrenches are not recommended.
