Pipe threads are made up to a seal against the mating flanks, not tightened to a bolt preload, so no proof load or tightening-torque figure applies.
The bolt schedule collects the fasteners for one job onto a single sheet - tap drill, wrench size, grade and tightening torque on every line, taken straight from pages like this one. Free schedules hold 3 lines and are saved in this browser only.
