FAQs

Consider bolt material, required preload, proper lubrication, and thread condition to ensure accurate tensioning.

Hydraulic pressure stretches the bolt, allowing the nut to be tightened before releasing pressure to lock tension.

Hydraulic seal leakage is the most frequent issue, often caused by wear or improper maintenance.

Torque tightening using calibrated torque wrenches is the standard method for achieving accurate tension.
