37、e TestNuts shall have a break loose torque value equal toor greater than 100% of the seating torque value. Theseating torque value shall be 10% of the values listedin Table 3.(a) Procedure. Place a test bolt through a cold-rolledsteel strip and spacers as required. Assemble a test nutso that at leas
38、t three thread pitches of the bolt extendbeyond the top of the nut. While preventing the steelstrip from rotating, apply the torque value listed inTable 3. Record the seating torque values, break the nutloose from its seated position, and record the highestASME B18.16.4-2008Table 3 Proof Load and To

The bolt shall have an ultimate tensilestrength not less than the specified proof load of the nutto be tested. Bolt length shall be such that a m
43、inimumlength equivalent to six thread pitches as measured fromthe end of the bolt will protrude through the nut whenthe nut is seated.(c) Test Strip. The steel strip must be a minimum of0.060 in. thick, having a hardness between HRB 60 andHRB 90. The strip must have holes for placing the boltthrough
44、 that are 0.010 in. to 0.025 in. over the boltsnominal thread diameter.(d) Torque Measuring Device. Test results may be mea-sured by an analog or digital device that is capable ofindicating and holding a peak torque value. The analogor electronic measuring system shall have a certifiedaccuracy of 2%
