| Why is it important to properly torque a bolt? |
Improper torqueing will stretch the bolt- maybe not enough that it snaps or fails, but it will slightly weaken the bolt which will likely lead to failure down the road. Typically people over tighten bolts and/or lug nuts.
|
| If I torque a bolt properly to a specified given value, how much torque is required to break the bolt loose? |
You will need 1-1/2 times the amount of torque to break the bolt loose. Heat, vibration, dirt and other variables overtime will cause the bolt to tighten up slightly.
|
| Can all of our tools be used to tighten and loosen bolts? |
Yes.
