The clamping torque written on the rear axle on my eOne-sixty 9000 has been worn away. Does anyone know what it is please? :)

12mm thru axle is usually 15nm .....see no reason why it would be any different on your bike
 
Thanks to both of you for your replies. :)
I had a figure of 10-12Nm in mind, but I wasn't sure (could have been 12-14Nm). I had to use something so I went for 12Nm. I will leave at 12Nm for the moment and I will spend some more time to try to get the figure from Merida.
 
That should be OK as an interim. As a bove my past experience for allen key thru axles has been 15nm for the rear and 10-12 nm for the front. That always seemed a little weird to me given the front thru axle is 15mm whilst the rear is 12mm but I suppose it could be because the rear supports 148mm width as opposed to 110 at the front.
 
I told you it's 10nm. Looking at my 2021 E160 9000 and it's got 10nm on the axle.
That's definitive then Matt!! Is yours the type that has the lever used for battery removal stashed in it?
