ESTIMATED SHEAR STRENGTH Based off of 60 % of the minimum tensile strength using the thread root area. Its not the part of ASTM STD
CLAMP LOAD CONSIDERED 75% OF YIELD STRENGTH FOR THE GRADE SPECIFIED IN THE STANDARD
COEFICIENT OF FRICTION
In case of PTFE coating the K value is low as 0.12
K= In case of unlubricated fasteners the K value is considered as 0.2
In case of lubricated fasteners the K value is considered as 0.15
