Torque spec lookup checklist

TorqueLookup.com is intentionally process-first: it helps you confirm the correct OEM value and method without encouraging guessing. Use the checklist below to verify your exact spec.

Step	What to check	Why it matters
1	Exact year / model / trim / engine	Specs can change between trims, engines, and revisions.
2	Fastener type (bolt vs stud/nut) + grade/class	Strength and seating geometry affect clamp load.
3	Condition (dry, oiled, threadlocker, anti-seize)	Friction changes clamp load at the same torque.
4	Sequence and staging requirements	Uniform loading prevents distortion and loosening.
5	Locking method (stake/cotter/tab/new nut)	Many joints rely on specified retention.

Best-practice installation notes

Use the specified torque condition (dry/oiled/threadlocker) per the source procedure. Clean and seat the joint before final torque.

Common mistakes

Using the wrong wrench range (small fastener with a large wrench at the bottom of its range)
Torquing before the joint is fully seated (paint/debris on mating faces)
Changing lubrication without updating the procedure (anti-seize can increase clamp load at the same torque)
Skipping the specified sequence/stages
Reusing single-use (TTY) or locking hardware when replacement is required

FAQ

Quick FAQ

Where do I find the OEM torque spec for this exact application?
Use the factory service manual or official manufacturer procedure for your exact year/model/trim and the specific component revision.

Should I use anti-seize or threadlocker?
Only if the OEM procedure specifies it. Lubrication and threadlocker change friction and can change clamp load at the same torque.

Do I need a sequence or staged torque?
Many assemblies do. Use the OEM sequence and stage approach to seat the joint evenly and reduce distortion.
