Values shown in these tables are based on steel bolting that has been
well-lubricated with heavy graphite and oil mixture. Research has shown
that a non-lubricated bolt has about 50% of the efficiency of a well-lu-
bricated bolt. It has been further found that different lubricants produce
results varying between the limit of 50% and 100% of the tabulated
stress figures.
These tables are for reference only. See torque tables for recommended
installation torques.
