* Torque given is for clean, dry threads. Reduce by 10% when engine oil is used as lubricant.
Table H-2. Locknut Breakaway Torque Values.
NOTE
To determine breakaway torque, thread lock nut onto screw or bolt until at least
two threads stick out. Locknut shall not make contact with a mating part. Stop the
locknut. Torque necessary to begin turning locknut again is the breakaway torque.
Do not reuse locknuts that do not meet minimum breakaway torque.
