I have a pressure vessel (cylinder). The top cap and the bottom cap (or base) is held together using 12 different foot long bolts, in circle along the edge. The body of the cylinder (with lesser diameter than the top and the base, thus inside the cage that these bolts make) is now under a...
Guys,
First off, thank you for the responses. There is a lot of good information from physics point of view and from market available devices on bolt torquing in the above comments if anyone is interested.
To summarize my understanding, relating the amount of torque applied on a bolt to the...
Hey guys,
Let's talk about connecting rod bolts. We all know that it has to be bolted to a specific torque value during installation. The pump I am working with is requires 140 ft/lbs of torque on these bolts.
Torquing a bolt simply means stretching it so that the shank and the threads are...
