Notes:
Torque Values are in ft.-lbs., and assume Alloy Steel Bolts (A193 B7 w/ 2H Nuts) with oil/graphite lubrication.
(Nut factors used on these charts are within .15 to .19)
Flexitallic does not generally recommend a bolt stress above 60,000 PSI
Torque values limit minimum and maximum gasket seating stresses based upon pressure class and certain operating conditions.(i.e: maximum pressure ratings for given
pressure class,not hydrotest pressure). Extreme operating conditions such as high temperature may reduce bolt yield strength. Caution should be used in these
applications. The above torque values are for general use only. For critical or extreme applications (high temperature/pressure) consult with Flexitallic engineering.
Flexitallic does not accept responsibility for the misuse of this information.
