Conversion Factor Example
The tightening torques given on the previous pages are for unplated nuts and bolts. As finish and lubrication materially
affect tightening torque by increasing or reducing friction, it is necessary to apply correction factors to achieve the
required bolt loading when one or both of the components is plated.
Example of Correction
Nut Finish - 8mm Self Colour
Bolt Finish - 8mm 8.8 Grade Cadmium
Correct Tightening Torque = 23.5 x 0.8 = 18.8 Nm
