2 Concept
For the purposes of this standard, prevaling torque type
nuts are steel nuts (allmetal one-part or combined nuts
jth metalic or non-metallic insert, in which increased
| triction in the thread prevents the nut loosening itsel,
The increased (ration ie evaatad by the appropriate
design of the prevailing torque element in the nut and
‘generates axial and/or radial lamping in the mating bolt
tnd nut thread pitches, The torque cequired to turn the
rut en abolt, measured during the turning process with
out axial load, Is the additional torque attributable 10
