VALVE GP-SOLENOID 2331490 - Caterpillar

Standard Bolt Torque
____________________Note: The torques in the following tables are based on metric Grade 10.9 or higher fasteners (SAE Grade 8 or higher fasteners). Use hardened washers. Split lock washers are not permitted.
If bolts are removed from the CX31 transmission to add mounting brackets, etc. they must be replaced with longer bolts so that thread engagement is maintained. The replacement bolts must be of the same grade and torqued to the required specifications.Thread engagement length and bolt torques are critical on the Aluminum Case and Cover of the CX Transmissions. The bolts selected for aluminum threaded bores must have a thread engagement length of twice the bolt diameter. Standard torques on short bolts will strip the threads. The bolts must not be too long because the bolts will bottom out and damage the case.
