When a compound is applied to a threaded fastener that will be tightened to a specific torque setting, the torque setting will require adjustment to allow for the lubricating effect of the compound. Failure to do so can result in incorrect tension in the fastener.
Correct torque settings can be calculated using the tables and charts below and the standard thread equation:
T = KDP
T = Torque (N.m), D = Diameter (m), P = Clamping force (N), K = Nut factor
Material K Nut factor
8.8 Steel self-coloured 0.14
8.8 Steel BZP 0.10
8.8 Steel hot-dip galvanised 0.14
A2 Stainless steel 0.13
Brass 0.12
