Fastener Tightening Torque<br />
Listed in the following tables are fastener tightening torque values required for proper<br />
assembly of Ariel JG and JGA compressors. Refer to the section concerning a subject component<br />
for detailed assembly procedures.<br />
Threads must be clean and free of burrs.<br />
PISTON/RIDER RING END GAP<br />
NEW MAXIMUM<br />
2.75 (70) 0.090 to 0.096 (2.29 to 2.44) 0.047 to 0.059 (1.19 to 1.50) 0.177 (4.50)<br />
3 (76) 0.090 to 0.096 (2.29 to 2.44) 0.051 to 0.063 (1.30 to 1.60) 0.189 (4.80)<br />
Torque values are based on the use of petroleum type lubricants on both the threads and<br />
seating surfaces. Use lubricating oil or Lubriplate 630, except for compressor rods-piston<br />
end, piston nuts and crosshead nuts use Never-Seez (by Bostik, Boston St., Middleton, MA<br />
01949, phone: 508-777-0100). Molybdenum disulfide lubricants and Never-Seez are not<br />
otherwise to be used for fastener lubrication, unless specified, or excessive stresses can<br />
result with the listed values.<br />
