- Does anyone have a torque multiplier they use when an elastic stop nut is used? In other words, if I'm supposed to torque a nut to 25 lb-ft but I'm using a nylock (aka elastic stop nut) instead, add

- Why not just torque it to the proper specs?, The nylon is just to keep it from coming off with vibration.

- That's not what I was after. My thought was that some of the torque applied is ``used up'' overcoming the friction of the nylon against the threads as the fastener is tightened. (I.e. you cannot spin

- Matt reckoned: And you were correct . . however, the extra torque would be negligible on a "nyloc". There ARE industrial fasteners which operate on the principle of deformed nut bodies or threads whi

- The friction (at the threads) involved while torquing a nut down only comes into play after the nut has been tightened down enough for the threads to be pulling against one another. Then you run int
