Torque Wrench Myths Lubricant
|
A torque wrench can’t measure friction. For most fasteners the final torque will depend on the type of lubricant used. Motor oil, for example, has a different friction coefficient than moly lube or ARP’s new Ultra Torque lubricant. Make sure your torque number takes into account the lubricant being used. You can get this type of information from fastener manufacturers like ARP. View Related Article
