This SAE Information Report is provided as an advisory guide. Individual application discretion is recommended. The content has been presented as accurately as possible, but responsibility for its application lies with the user. The document covers a number of the variables in the torque-tension relationship: friction, materials, temperature, humidity, fastener and mating part finishes, surfaces, and the kind of tightening tools or equipment used. Also described in this document is the torque management required to achieve satisfactory fastened joint tightening. This guide is limited in application to clearance fit threads, such as the common 6g/6H class of fit. Other thread types including interference fit, mechanical locking, prevailing torque, or forms other than ISO-metric may apply to some aspects of this standard but are not specifically covered.

This SAE Recommended Practice covers installation and inspection methods for fasteners which are tensioned using Tension Indicating Washers (TIWs) as a means to ensure that adequate tension is developed in mechanically fastened joints. Figure 1 depicts a typical TIW, and Figure 2 depicts a fastener assembly with a TIW before and after tensioning.

This SAE Standard covers general, dimensional data, and methods of test for two types of general purpose nut and conical spring washer assemblies, designated Type LN and Type HN, intended for mass production and other operations where speed and convenience are paramount factors.

This standard covers two types of general purpose conical spring washers, designated as Type L and Type H, for use as loose washers over screws and bolts, and also for use as preassembled washers on washer and screw or bolt assemblies. The Type L series is for use on screw or bolt assemblies having an ultimate strength range of 50,000 to 69,000 psi, and the Type H series is for use on screw or bolt assemblies having an ultimate strength in the area of 120,000 psi. The specification of sizes and types in this SAE Standard does not necessarily indicate that all sizes and types are available from stock. Users should consult with manufacturers for availability.
