Default B767 thrust

According to the type certificate data sheet for the Pratt and Whitney
62,000 thrust engine, the max continuous thrust should be ~52,000 and
the 62,000 for 5 minutes max. The question is, does N1 @ 100% produce
52,000 lbs of thrust or does it produce 60,200 lbs of thurst? Any
airline pilots out there that can shed light on this?
Thanks, Kevin
