The published torque values do not include the rotational drag of the elastic stop nuts (AN365). Standard
maintenance practice dictates that mechanics add this value to the specied torque. A random sample of new
and used AN365-4, and -5 nuts shows that the torque required to turn AN4 (1/4”) nuts varied between 15-19
in/lbs. The torque required onAN5 (5/16”) nuts varied between 18-22 in/lbs. This value must be added to the
torque value.
