29、tive) Torque testing A.1 Torque measuring device The torque measuring device (torque wrench or power device) shall be accurate to2% of the maximum specified torque range of the device. For referee purposes, the device shall be chosen so that all readings fall within the upper half of the torque rang

30、e. Manual torque wrenches may be used for measurement of torque, but for referee purposes, an automatic electronic sensing device shall be used. A.2 Test washers/spacers A.2.1 Properties Test spacers shall be made from steel with a surface hardness of500HV to600HV and a core hardness of450HV to490HV

31、 and shall be unplated. The faces shall be flat and parallel within 4% of the specific minimum thickness. The surface roughness of the abutment faces shall not exceed3.24m (seeBS1134-2). Test spacers shall be designed such that when assembled into the test equipment, rotation is prevented during tig

32、htening of bolt. A.2.2 Dimensions The inside diameter of the test spacer shall be in accordance with Table A.1. The thickness of the spacer shall be calculated to ensure that the prevailing torque feature is fully engaged in the test nut during the whole test measurement sequence, but shall not be l

33、ess than the minimum thickness shown in Table A.1. Table A.1 Spacer dimensions A.3 Test nuts A.3.1 Properties The test nuts shall be to property class8 of BSEN20898-2:1992 manufactured from steel hardened to450HV at the surface. The nuts shall be threaded to a6H tolerance class in conformance with B

34、S3643-2:1981. A.3.2 Dimensions The test nut shall be of sufficient length to contain nine full thread pitches and a chamfer of at least one full thread pitch at each end. A.4 Test procedure A.4.1 General Conduct the prevailing torque test at ambient temperature between15 C and30 C. Measure all preva

35、iling torque measurements by a torque measuring device (seeA.1) with a screw in motion and with the full length of the prevailing torque feature in contact with the test nut thread. A.4.2 Bolts and screws Using a suitable test spacer (seeA.2), assemble the sample screw in a test nut, as detailed inA

36、.3. Ensure that the screw is advanced in the nut until all prevailing torque feature threads are in full contact with the test nut thread. Measure the maximum torque occurring while the screw is being advanced through the next360 of rotation. For the screw to be acceptable, check that this torque do

37、es not exceed the maximum prevailing torque value as specified for the applicable screw in Table A.2. Continue tightening until the screw is seated against the test spacer and the tightening torque specified in Table A.2 is achieved. Ensure that the thickness of the test nut is such that seating of

38、the screw occurs when the feature is still fully in contact with the test nut thread. Prevent the test spacer from turning during screw tightening. Slacken the screw by the application of reverse torque until the tensile load has been reduced to zero. Measure the minimum torque occurring while the s

39、crew is being removed through the next360 of rotation. For the screw to be acceptable, check that this torque is not less than the first removal prevailing torque specified for the applicable screw in Table A.2 nor greater than the maximum prevailing torque. After the first removal prevailing torque

40、 has been measured, back off the screw until the feature is disengaged from the nut thread. Reassemble the screw to the specified tightening torque and remove four more times. On each removal, ensure that the feature is disengaged from the nut thread. Dimensions in millimetres Nominal thread diamete

42、urring while the screw is being removed through the first360 rotation after the tensile load has been reduced to zero. For the screw to be acceptable check that this torque is not less than the fifth removal prevailing torque value as specified in Table A.2. In addition, check that at no time during

43、 these four subsequent tightenings and slackenings does the torque exceed the maximum prevailing torque value specified in Table A.2. To avoid overheating of the test assembly, allow sufficient time to elapse between the torque application cycles. Check that the speed of installation and removal of

44、the nut does not exceed30r.p.m. and is continuous and uniform. Clean the test nut between the tests so as to ensure all prevailing torque feature material and lubricant is removed. Clean and examine the test spacer for conformance toA.2. A.4.3 Headless set screws and studs Using a suitable thread st

45、op, assemble the sample screw in a test nut, as detailed inA.3. Advance the screw in the nut until all prevailing torque feature threads are in full contact with the test nut thread. Measure the maximum torque occurring while the screw is being advanced through the next360 of rotation. For the screw

46、 to be acceptable, check that this torque does not exceed the maximum prevailing torque value as specified for the applicable screw in Table A.2. Continue tightening until the screw is seated against the thread stop and the tightening torque specified in Table A.2 is achieved. Ensure that the thickn

47、ess of the test nut is such that seating of the screw occurs when the feature is still fully in contact with the test nut thread. Prevent the thread stop from turning during screw tightening. Slacken the screw by the application of reverse torque until the compressive load has been reduced to zero.

48、Measure the minimum torque occurring while the screw is being removed through the next360 of rotation. For the screw to be acceptable, check that this torque is not less than the first removal prevailing torque specified for the applicable screw in Table A.2 nor greater than the maximum prevailing t

49、orque. After the first removal prevailing torque has been measured, back off the screw until the feature is disengaged from the nut thread. Reassemble the screw to the specified tightening torque and remove four more times. On each removal, ensure that the feature is disengaged from the nut thread. During the fifth removal, measure the minimum torque occurring while the screw is being removed through the first360 rotation after the compressive load has been reduced to zero. For the screw to be acceptable, check that this torque is not less than t
