Mechanical properties
Preload and torque for: medium clearance hole (ISO 273), tightening to ν = 90 % of yield, coarse thread, µG = µK = 0.14.

| Steel 8.8Steel 8.8 Tensile strength Rm ≥ 800 MPa, yield Rp0.2 ≥ 640 MPa (80 % of Rm). The everyday property class for machine parts. The property class this standard is usually made in.usual | 8.2 | 11.3 | 7.0 | 6.6 | Calculate torque |
| Steel 10.9Steel 10.9 Tensile strength Rm ≥ 1040 MPa, yield Rp0.2 ≥ 940 MPa (90 % of Rm). High strength, for heavily loaded joints. | 11.8 | 14.7 | 10.3 | 9.6 | Calculate torque |
| Stainless A2-70Stainless A2-70 Tensile strength Rm ≥ 700 MPa, yield Rp0.2 ≥ 450 MPa. Austenitic stainless A2 (like AISI 304): general corrosion resistance. | 6.4* | 9.9 | 4.9 | 4.6 | Calculate torque |
* Stainless: load at yield (Rp0.2 × As); ISO 3506-1 gives no proof load.
Stainless steel: the real friction is higher and scatters widely, so the torque shown is only a starting point; type your own µ in the box.
