A torque measures how hard something is rotated. The magnitude of a torque depends on the force applied, the length of the lever and the angle between the two. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torque I found a bolt torque table which may be printed out and is easy to read at: http://www.boltdepot.com/fastener-information/bolts/US-Recommended-Torque.aspx
