I use a torque wrench on my vehicles and trailers, and I lube the nuts and studs too, with engine oil or grease. I derate the torque values by 30% because of the lube factor.
I've never had a stuck nut or one too loose in all the years I've been doing this. Prior to that, I sometimes had a difficult time removing rusted, screeching lug nuts. No more.
