Table 2
Grease Fittings (Zerk Fittings)
Diameter of the Pipe Thread (Inch) Assembly Turns after Hand Tight Torque
1/8–27 PTF Special Short Torque Values Specified in Table 1
1/8–27 NPTF
1/4–28 SAE-LT 8.5 1 N m (75.23 8.85 lb in) 6 N m (53.11 lb in) Note: Torque values listed above are recommended when assembling a steel fitting to a steel port. Other materials require additional validation.
Torque values for tapered external pipe threads (e.g., NPT, NPTF, BSPT) mated with NPSF or BSPP straight internal pipe threads shall use 50% of the value and tolerance shown in Table 1. Values for NPSM connections are shown in Table 1.Note: “Turns After Hand Tight” method shall not be used for straight internal pipe threads.
Apply thread sealant to male tapered pipe threads, unless one of the following conditions exists:
Connector is a lubrication (grease) connector.
Connector is used in non water-cooled exhaust-related engine parts.
On pipe threads which have pre-applied sealants.Connector is mated with an NPSM swivel nut.
Hand-tighten swivel nut/connector to connector/port.
Apply assembly torque by using the "Assembly Turns after Hand Tight" values or the "Dynamic Assembly Torque" values from Table 1.
One clockwise rotation past the "Maximum Assembly Torque" is allowed for orientation.
