What Is The Torque Specifications On A 9/16 Inch Lug Nut  

Question:

I have 9/16 lug nuts. My instructions call for 110 Ft/Lb of torque. The spec calls for 170 FT/Lb. What is the correct amount?

Expert Reply:

The standard torque on a Redline Trailer Wheel Lug Nut - 9/16 inch, part # 6-53, is 135 to 145 ft lbs. This is the torque range that is normally used. If the instructions for the wheel are saying 110 ft lbs there might be a reason, like the wheel material, why they are recommending a lower torque. I think 170 ft lbs is too high for a 9/16 inch lug nut.
