  2. Preload (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preload_(engineering)

    Preload in such cases is important for several reasons. First, a tightened bolt experiences only a small fraction of any external load that will be applied later, so that a fully tightened bolt can (depending on the exact application) sustain a much greater load than a loosely tightened bolt.

  3. Bolted joint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bolted_joint

    The applied torque causes the bolt to "climb" the thread causing a tensioning of the bolt and an equivalent compression in the components being fastened by the bolt. The preload developed in a bolt is due to the applied torque and is a function of the bolt diameter, the geometry of the threads, and the coefficients of friction that exist in the ...

  4. Preload control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preload_control

    Preload control. Amount of the no-load tension in the bolted joint ( preload) greatly affects the reliability of the joint. Multiple techniques exist for preload control to ensure that the tension in the bolt is close to the one specified in the design (some bolt-to-bolt statistical variations are inevitable): [1] torque-controlled tightening ...

  5. Torque-to-yield fastener - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torque-to-yield_fastener

    Torque-to-yield fastener. A torque to yield fastener (TTY) or stretch Bolt is a fastener which is torqued beyond the state of elasticity and therefore undergoes plastic deformation, causing it to become permanently elongated. [1][2]

  6. Jam nut - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jam_nut

    The preload pulls the nut threads against the bolt threads, and the nut face against the bearing surface, with a constant force, so that the nut cannot rotate without overcoming the friction between these surfaces. If the joint is subjected to vibration, however, the preload increases and decreases with each cycle of movement. If the minimum ...

  7. Screw mechanism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screw_mechanism

    A machine used in schools to demonstrate the action of a screw, from 1912. It consists of a threaded shaft through a threaded hole in a stationary mount. When the crank on the right is turned, the shaft moves horizontally through the hole. The screw is a mechanism that converts rotational motion to linear motion, and a torque (rotational force ...
