  * When alignment of locking holes (cotter pins, lockwire, etc.) is required at assembly.
 ** When alignment of locking holes is not required at assembly.
*** For screws larger than .164 thread size, having screwdriver slots only (no external wrenching provisions)
     22 lb-in   minimum (22 lb-in plus torque required to turn screw through nut, for self-locking applications).

NOTE: For thin nuts, where height of nut is 40% to 75% of major diameter, reduce torque value 50%.
