SAE AIR 6151C:2024-01-16

This SAE Aerospace Information Report (AIR) is intended to provide guidelines to tightening methods and torque values as applied to electrical connectors, related hardware and switches, relays, circuit breakers, and A-A-59125 type terminal boards. The connectors and associated hardware discussed herein are typically manufactured from aluminum alloy, high-grade engineering thermoplastics, or corrosion-resistant steel, and typically plated with a protective/conductive coating. These guidelines may be used where no rules have been mandated either contractually or otherwise.
