Thank you kind sir for the reply.

And by the way anyone that thinks you can reuse a bolt that has been torqued to yield and it doesnt change the properties is on borrowed time and hope your not sharing the road with me.

Jus sayin.

Torque Until Yield.

From a class test in Structure Engineering & Metallurgy
Q: What is the correct torque setting for a grade XX fastener with/o any known strength?
Correct answer: "Torque to failure, then back off 1/2 turn".....

Who says you don't learn anything in College that you can apply in the driveway or garage? :bustingup
