How Tight Should Wet Equalizer Bolts like # 126B2 When Installed on a Trailer
Updated 04/29/2011 | Published 04/28/2011 >
Question:
Can you tell me what the torque rating is for greasable bolts, 126-B2? I am using this on my leaf springs and equalizer on my landscape trailer. Thank you.

When tightening down Wet Equalizer Bolts like # 126B2, our installers in the past have torqued them to about 70 foot pounds. Over tightening can lead to components being damaged so make sure to use a torque wrench that is rated properly. I have included a link to a video that may help as well.
