Hello Rick; Here are two files that concern Grade 5 & Grade 8 fasteners. The
first contains a general discussion along with a table of fasteners by type,
material, diameter, and tensile & shear capability. The second file contains
torque and clamp loads for both grades. Hopefully these files will provide the
information you need. Good luck.

I'm working on a small Italian motorcycle with a fairly sketchy shop manual. No
torque figures are given for any of the fasteners. I've seen generic lists of
recommended torque figures for various sizes of nuts and bolts but can't
remember where I saw them. Can anybody point me in the right direction? >>
