I hate to get us off the track of fun discussions with a technical question, but these can be fun, too. Should we lube threaded fasteners on our 40 year old engines? If so, what torque readings shoul

I think that using ARP lube is a good measure for all bolts that have critical torque specifications. It lets you achieve an accurate torque setting without having to worry about thread binding throw

To add to some other confusion.. With regard to aftermarket high quality fasteners i.e. ARP or other.... my understanding is that they may have a coating (anti rust or other?) on them from the factor

As far as the difference in torque specs for coated/uncoated/lubricated fasteners, pulled out my text book from machine design ("Mechanical Engineering Design" by Shigley and Mischke). Torque require

I always follow ARP's directions when installing their rod bolts, but on the "cheap" motors where stock rod bolts are being used, my usual practice is to apply a few drops of Blue Loctite to an othe

Most everyone has answered the question about lubed vs. unlubed torques, but I think I need to clarify this business of torquing to 80% of yield. I'm sure there are exceptions, both in specific insta

Torque wrenches may be checked for accuracy and adjusted to give the correct torque. This should be done at least once a year or any time the wrench is dropped. I don't know the cost since we have a

Don't turn it down to zero, just to the lowest torque setting on the wrench. My Lab Aide is very fussy about this. He keeps the click-types in his office desk instead of the tool crib, and reminds t

Here's my 2 shillings (farthings?) worth: While torquing a fastener too close to the yield point may be detrimental, fatigue life probably goes down if the fastener is undertorqued as well. You do no

True, too. But, I wasn't adressing that problem--in fact, the engineering process I described ensures a clamp load at least 1.5 times the greatest expected load at a little more than half the yield o

On our Triumphs there are some possible pitfalls to trying to torque "dry". Unless you're using new nuts and bolts... getting the 30+ years of gunk/assembly lube/WD-40 out of a part can be daunting.
