An anti-seize lubricant used on a bolt helps to develop greater clamp load for the same torque compared to an unlubricated bolt. An additional benefit is greater uniformity in clamp load among a series of bolts. The relationship between torque and clamp load is expressed in the following equation: T = K x F x D, where T = Torque (Nˇm, lb.in, lb.ft); K = Torque coefficient or nut factor, determine experimentally; F = Clamp load (N, lb.); D = Nominal diameter of bolt (mm, in.).
Torque coefficient, k:
SAE grade 5, class2, phosphate coated steel nuts & bolts - 0.16
SAE grade 5, class2, phosphate coated steel nuts & bolts, solvent cleaned, not lubricated - 0.19
