How much torque do you need for screws?
US Recommended Bolt Torque
| Size | Recommended Torque | |
|---|---|---|
| Grade 2 | 18-8 S/S | |
| 5/16″ | 8 | 11 |
| 3/8″ | 15 | 20 |
| 7/16″ | 24 | 31 |
Which torque value is used to determine the tightening of fasteners?
The Torque/Tension Equation is a method used to estimate the torque/tension relationship in an assembly. T = (K D P)/12 can be used to developt a torque value that will achieve a certain tension or clamp load.
How do you calculate bolt tension?
Determine the tension force on the bolt. This can also be measured using a force transducer (again, if the value is not already known). Assume the tension force is 3 lbs. Subtract the preload force from the tension force. In our example, the tension force (2 lbs.) subtracted from the preload force (3 lbs.) gives 1 lbs.
What are the torque requirements for bolts?
The required bolt clamping force for a joint is 20000 lbs. The torque required for a 3/4″ dry steel bolt to achieve this tension can be calculated as. T dry = (0.2) (20000 lb) (0.75 in) = 3000 (in lb)
What are the torque specifications for a metric bolt?
Metric Bolt Torque. If the bolt diameter is 5 mm, thread series is Coarse, ISO 898-1 Property Class is 8.8, then. Torque for Ecoguard Bolt is 4.0 Nm, Lubricated is 4.6 Nm and dry is 6.2 Nm.
