I have a number of torque charts from a variety of sources in my "Fasters" notebook. They generally agree on dry torque but most don't address torque values for lubricated bolts.

Does anyone have a nice clear chart that they use and trust?

What I'm after is just for general-purpose mechanical applications--not exotic or critical joints that require analysis.

Also, any advice regarding torque values for "whiz-lock" fasteners (flanged and serrated) would be helpful.

Thanks
