Torque

A torque load is a tangential force that can be applied to a cylindrical face or circular edge (curves, polygon faces, or polygon edges). The direction of the torque load follows the right hand rule.

A torque load is automatically oriented to the normal axis of the cylindrical face or circular edge. When you apply a torque load to many faces, each face or edge uses its own normal axis for orientation.
