Note 1: The Torque values have been calculated based on the formula of ASME PCC-1-2000 Appendix K.
This recommended value is not applicable to FRP flanges. FRP Vendor's recommendation shall be applied for FRP flange bolting.
Note 2: 1st additional tightening value should be applied when the flange leaking is occurred after intial bolt tightening.
Note 3: 2nd additional tightening value should be applied when the flange leaking is occurred after 1st additional bolt tightening.
