    Fug 28 2001 1: IFi524 1996 TEST PROCEDURE FOR THE PERFORMANCE OF METRIC NONMETALLIC RESISTANT ELEMENT PREVAILING-TORQUE SCREWS. JFL NOTES: 1 IFi-524 is a standard developed through the procedures of the indus- trial Fasteners Institute. IFI-524 is under the jurisdiction of IFl Divi- sions ( and il! and is the direct responsibility of the IF! Standards and Technical Practices Committee. IF1-524 defines the testing of lock screws to determine their conform- ance with specified prevailing-torque requirements. JFI-524 was first issued in 1982 and was extensively reviewed and revised in 1996. 1. Scope 1.1. This standard establishes a conform- ance test procedure for the performance of metric Nonmetallic Resistant Element Type Pre- vailing-Torque Screws (hereinafter called REPT screw). in nominal thread diameters MH.6 thru M36 The prevailing torque values given in this slandard are conformance requirements of test conditions described in the performance test procedure (4.1) if the conditions of the actual service application differ from those of 4.1 (¢.g., internally threaded hole in a different material, length of thread engagement, class of internal thread tolerance, speed of driving, different plat- ing or coating on screw or mating part}, the pre- vailing-torque values may differ. Such values can only be determined through testing the REPT screw in its specific application, This standard is net concemed with di- mensional features such as head styles, or with other mechanical or pertormance capabilities such as strength properties, corrosion resis- tance, sealing, suitability for use in high or low temperatures, and/or consistency of torque-to tension relationships during assembly. Such features and properties are covered in other standards and specifications and must be ref- erenced when specitying a REPT screw to as- sure that ail of the service conditions of the par- ticular engineering application are properly met. (Note: The application of some non- metallic elements requires heating of an iso- lated area in the screw thread to approxi- mately 600°F which may have an adverse ef- fect on the mechanical properties of some products.) 1.2 While the requirements of this standard apply to REPT screws, it is not the intent to pre- clude alternate types of screws which totally salisly the requirements of this standard, 1.3 Definitions 1.3.1. Aprevailing-torque REPT screw is an ex- ternally threaded fastener which is frictionally resistant to rotation due to a self-contained pre- valling-torque feature, and not because of a compressive load developed against the under- head bearing surface of the screw or a tensile load developed in the shank of the screw. 1.3.2 REPT screws are metallic sorews to which have been added a nonmetallic insert or fused nonmetallic substance in their threaded length. The design of the prevailing-torque fea- ture shail be in accordance with the practice of the manufacturer. Depending upon the amount of friction present because of surface finish and 90 P.01/05 LOCKING FASTENEF —E-7 490 P..02/05 Pug 28 2001 1: B4AS8S OCKING TEST PROCEDURE FOR THE PERFORMANCE \STENERS OF METRIC NONMETALLIC RESISTANT ELEMENT oe | — PREVAILING-TORQUE SCREWS 1996 lubricants, the dimensional characteristics of the nonmetallic element may vary to achieve the Performance requirements stated in Table 1 1.3.3 For purposes of this standard, “lot” means a quantity of fasteners of one part num- ber fabricated by the same production process from the same coil or heat number of metal as provided by the fastener manufacturer and sub- mitted for inspection and testing at one time. 2. Property Classes 2.1. Property Classes. This standard cov- ers only steel REPT screws produced to meet the mechanical strength requirements of one of four basic Property Classes, 8.8, 9.8, 10.9 and 12.9 as specified in ASTM F56aM, page B56, The standard sizes of REPT screws for each of the four property classes are given in Table 1. 3. Requirements 3.1 Finish. REPT screws shall be furnished plain or with a protective coating as specified by the purchaser. If tolerancing differs, see "Scope" Para, 2. Althe option of the manufacturer, screws ‘may be provided with a supplementary lubricant 3.2 Threads 3.2.1 Thread Tolerances. Threads of REPT Screws shall be tolerance Class 69 as specified in ASME B1.13M, except that the portion of the threaded length containing the nonmetallic ele- ment need not conform. If tolerancing differs, see "Scope" Para, 2. 3.2.2 Thread Start. REPT screws, except those covered in 3.3.2, shall assemble 2 mini- mum of one full turn by the fingers into any mating internally threaded component that has threads acceptable to Gaging System 21 of ASME B1.3M, page A-~<6. 3.3 Performance 3.3.1 The prevalling-torque of REPT screws ‘ecurring during any installation or removal shail Not exceed the maximum prevailing-torque Specified in Table 1 when tested as specified in 4.1. In addition, the highest prevatling-torques developed by REPT screws during first and fin Femoval shall not be fess than the minimum first and fifth removal torques, respectively, speci- fied in Table 1 when tested in accordance with 4.1. In adsition, the lowest prevailing-torque developed by REPT screws during the fifth re- ‘moval shall not be zero, wien tested in accor. dance with 4.1. 3.3.2 REPT screws which are tco short o: which have thread lengths too short to permit testing in accordance with 4.1 shall have their Prevailing-torque requirements and test proce. dure established by agreement between the purchaser and manufacturer 3.4 When REPT screws are altered in any manner by any source following skipment by the manufacturer to a purchaser, the screw manufacturer shall not be held responsible for failures of the screws to meet dimensional or Performance requirements traceable to the al- teration 4. Performance Test 41 Test Procedure. ‘The sample REPT Screw shall be assembled with a test washer (4.5.8) and a test nut (4.1.2) in a load measur- ing device (4.1.1) with the test washer located adjacent to the component to be tured. Our ing the compicte performance of the test, either the REPT screw or the test nut shall be tuned, When the REPT screw is tuned, the restrain TEST PROCEDURE FOR THE PERFORMANCE 0 P..03/05 Fug 28 2001 1: I u rris2a OF METRIC NONMETALLIC RESISTANT ELEMENT 7 PREVAILING-TORQUE SCREWS = Table 1_ Prevailing-Torques for Nonmetallic Resistant Element Screws - : ; a vromting- | Pest Removal [Fh Removal x vat revaiing- |" Prevaling Nom Screw Torque Torque Size and aes rece raen Property Ci wee wn itn 88 98 10.9 12.9 Nm | Nm - Nem wexoss ne elo a0 oor D008 weno } = | to] =] 3 020 ee oot wes xa4s : ts | — | 28 | oa 208 03 Tvaxos Pa ose or a0 | Nase a8 = | 33 a3 290 ze an Maco? =~ [ep od es 1?

The REPT screw or test nut shall be advanced until its bearing surface is seated against the test washer. The total thickness of spacer matenal in the test as- ‘sembly shail be selected so that at seating, the mid-length of the nonmetallic element of the screw shail coincide as closely as practical with the mid-thickness of the test nut, and a mini- mum length of REPT screw equivalent to two thread pitches shall project through the top of the test nut. During this first installation, the high- est prevailing-torque (first on torque) occurring while the REPT screw or test nut is in motion and prior to development of any axial load shall be measured and recorded Tightening shall be continued until an axial tensile clamp load equal to the load as. specified in Table 1 for the applicable screw size and property class is developed ‘The axial tensile clamp load in the REPT screw shall be reduced to zero by backing the tured member off unti the test washer is free to move by the fingers, Following a pause (itis generally necessary to change the wrench to one of a lower torque capacity), removal shall be continued and the highest torque (frst re- moval torque) occurring while the REPT screw or test nut is being backed off throughout the next 360 deg of rotation shall be measured and recorded.

During the fifth removal, the highesi torque (fifth removal torque) occurring while the REPT screw or test nut is being backed off throughout the first 360 deg of rotation shall be measured and recorded.
