This standard does not propose to address all the safety problems associated with its use. It is the responsibility o

46、f the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. 7 Notes 7.1 Glossary. Maximum Allowable Torque: The value of torque beyond which the seal is no longer functional or the threaded fitting, port or

47、tube is deformed beyond functionality (e.g., maximum allowable reduction of port through-hole). See Figure 2. Seal Torque: The minimum value of torque that is needed for the threaded fitting to provide a sealed connection. See Figure 2. Seat Torque: The torque level at which the fitting contacts the

48、 seat. It is characterized by a change in the torque angle signature from an upward curve to a straight line. Ultimate Torque: The maximum torque the joint can tolerate prior to fracture or strip. See Figure 2. Figure 2: Maximum Allowable Torque Zero Angle Reference Torque: Torque value at which the

49、 angle of all samples is set to zero for analysis purposes. 7.2 Acronyms, Abbreviations, and Symbols.
