Generic proof-strength and friction-factor tables are not validated for a particular joint or product. Units: MPa × mm² / 1000 = kN; K × diameter in mm × clamp load in kN = N·m; multiply by 0.7375621493 for ft-lb. No joint suitability, safety, lubrication compatibility or tightening sequence is assessed.
