    Torque Spec on Metal Valve Stems

    I'm installing metal valve stems as I install new tires. I'll be installing
    the "Tymate Tire Pressure Monitoring System for RV Trailers" once those new valve stems are installed.

    My aluminum rims are 15". I got to thinking about how much to torque the new valve stems to avoid crushing the rubber seal or not torqueing sufficient and the seal fail.

    Anybody looked into this and have any insight?

    I found this article that looks informative:
