At 230 Nm, you're working with heavy-duty bolting found in engine assemblies, commercial vehicles, and structural steel connections.
Common applications at this torque level include flywheel bolts and structural steel connections. The recommended tool is a 3/4-inch or 1-inch drive torque wrench, or a calibrated hydraulic torque wrench.
Working without a phone or calculator? You can run this same sum on paper, or estimate it in your head by taking three-quarters of 230. Our guide to converting Nm to ft-lbs by hand walks through the shortcut and where it is accurate enough to rely on.
