  2. Preload control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preload_control

    heat tightening is based on stretching the bolt by heating it. Once the bolt is expanded, the nut is secured using the turn-of-the-nut method. Upon cooling, a desired preload is achieved as the bolt contracts. This slow and exotic method is used when the bolts are very large;

  3. Bolted joint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bolted_joint

    The preload target can be achieved by a variety of methods: applying a measured torque to the bolt, measuring bolt extension, heating to expand the bolt then turning the nut down, torquing the bolt to the yield point, testing ultrasonically, or by applying a certain number of degrees of relative rotation of the threaded components. Each method ...

  4. Multi-jackbolt tensioner - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-jackbolt_tensioner

    Multi-jackbolt tensioners (MJTs), registered under the trademark Superbolt or Supernut, are designed to decrease the torque required to tighten large bolted joints. One of the major problems associated with traditional bolt tightening methods is as the diameter of the bolt increases, the amount of torque required to tighten it increases in the third power of the diameter.

  5. Preload (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preload_(engineering)

    First, a tightened bolt experiences only a small fraction of any external load that will be applied later, so that a fully tightened bolt can (depending on the exact application) sustain a much greater load than a loosely tightened bolt.

  6. Torque-to-yield fastener - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torque-to-yield_fastener

    It is therefore beneficial in high-frequency high-load situations with a higher risk of fatigue related failure, like a bolted down cylinder head, to use torque to yield bolts. [ citation needed ] The torque applied to the fastener must be determined such that it does not contribute to a service condition where the fastener enters a low-cycle ...

  7. Hydraulic torque wrench - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_torque_wrench

    A hydraulic torque wrench is a power tool designed to exert torque on a fastener to achieve proper tightening or loosening of a connection through the use of hydraulics. A torque wrench is applied to the nut either directly or in conjunction with an impact socket. Hydraulic torque wrenches apply a predetermined, controlled amount of torque to a ...

  8. Direct tension indicator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_tension_indicator

    Such DTIs are mechanically and metallurgically identical to the standard DTIs described above, except that as the protrusions of these self-indicating DTIs collapse upon tightening, the cavity material is expelled to the outer diameter of the device, giving a visual indication of protrusion compression, i.e. bolt tension. [7]

  9. Torque wrench - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torque_wrench

    A click torque wrench. A torque wrench is a tool used to apply a specific torque to a fastener such as a nut, bolt, or lag screw.It is usually in the form of a socket wrench with an indicating scale, or an internal mechanism which will indicate (as by 'clicking', a specific movement of the tool handle in relation to the tool head) when a specified (adjustable) torque value has been reached ...
