  2. Bolted joint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bolted_joint

    Torque charts are available to specify the required torque for a given fastener based on its property class (fineness of manufacture and fit) and grade (tensile strength). Spring Analogy for a Bolted Joint. When a fastener is tightened, a tension preload is develops in the bolt, while an equal compressive preload forms in the clamped parts.

  4. Lug wrench - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lug_wrench

    Installing a wheel with a lug wrench thus requires a bit of rough guessing about proper tightness. Excessive force can strip threads or make the nuts very difficult to remove. Also, uneven torque between the various lug nuts, or excessive torque, can lead to warping of the brake rotor if the car is equipped with disc brakes.

  5. Transmission (mechanical device) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmission_(mechanical...

    A transmission (also called a gearbox) is a mechanical device which uses a gear set—two or more gears working together—to change the speed, direction of rotation, or torque multiplication/reduction in a machine. [1] [2] Transmissions can have a single fixed-gear ratio, multiple distinct gear ratios, or continuously variable ratios. Variable ...

  6. Torque screwdriver - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torque_screwdriver

    Most torque screwdrivers allow the torque to be set to any value within a range. All have a torque-limiting clutch that disengages once the preset torque has been reached. Torque screwdrivers can exert torques from 0.04 N⋅m to at least 27 N⋅m. [1] Although no single tool covers the entire range, low-, mid-, and high-torque ranges are available.

  7. GM Roto Hydramatic transmission - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GM_Roto_Hydramatic...

    This transmission, like single and dual range and dual coupling hydramatics, also has the feature of split torque in the transmission, whereby in fourth (or high) gear only 40% to 50% depending on transmission—40% in Roto's case—but because of the design the coupling is only required to carry 40% of the engine torque. The remaining 60% is ...

  8. Safety wire - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safety_wire

    A safety wire is used to ensure proper security for a fastener. The wire needed is long enough to reach from a fixed location to a hole in the removable fastener, such as a pin — a clevis fastener, sometimes a linchpin or hitch-pin through a clevis yoke for instance — and the wire pulled back upon itself, parallel to its other end, then twisted, a single end inserted through a fastener ...

  9. Wire gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wire_gauge

    In some applications wire sizes are specified as the cross sectional area of the wire, usually in mm 2. Advantages of this system include the ability to readily calculate the physical dimensions or weight of wire, ability to take account of non-circular wire, and ease of calculation of electrical properties.
