I've noticed quite a few people inquiring about correct bolt torque for specific applications lately. Sometimes it's because they don't have and can't find the manual for that equipment, or one doesn't exist.
Here is a chart that applies to any bolt, regardless of brand or manufacturer. It may not be exactly the same as what Allis or Oliver would say, but it is correct. Most any bolt on a tractor or other piece of farm equipment is likely grade 8.

My hope is that the mods will find an easy way to make this available to anyone surfing this website.
