TM 10-3930-659-34 APPENDIX D TORQUE LIMITS D-1. SCOPE. This  appendix  lists  standard  torque  values,  as  shown  in  Table  D-1,  and  provides  general  information  for  applying torque.    Special  torque  values  and  tightening  sequences  are  indicated  in  the  maintenance  procedures  for  applicable components. D-2. GENERAL. a. Always use the torque values listed in Table D-1 when the maintenance procedure does not give a specific torque value. b. Unless otherwise indicated, standard torque tolerance shall be t 10%. c. Torque values listed are based on clean, dry threads.  Reduce torque by 10% when engine oil is used as a lubricant.  Reduce torque by 20% if new plated capscrews are used. d. Capscrews threaded into aluminum may require reductions in torque of 30% or more of Grade 5 capscrews torque.  Capscrew threaded into aluminum must also attain two capscrew diameters of thread engagement.
