Does anyone know where I might find torque test data for 37 degree tubing fittings that use swivel b-nuts? I am looking for information on the effects of lubed and un-lubed wire retainers for the swivel b-nuts, and if there is any change in the applied torque over time. Stainless steel as a material would be the best data.
A google search just provides suppliers that want to sell swivel b-nuts.
Thanks in advance.
