Do the washers come with recommended torques? Or do you just tighten the nut until you can't apply any more pressure or move the nut any more?

Thank you for your question!
For the construction and building industry, the required torques are given in our European technical assessment documents.
You can download them at www.nord-lock.com/campaign/ce-marking/
For all other industries you find our torque recommendations at www.nord-lock.com/nord-lock/torque-guidelines/
Or, you can calculate it on your own, using our torquelator app:
