Default Re: Understanding Bolt Torque vs Clamping Force

that chart is for unlubricated steel bolts ---it would be different for plated bolts, and different platings
in the old days there was snug, tight, and good and tight ---snug the oil pan bolts, tighten the head nuts, get the axle nut good and tight, the length of the wrenches determined the torque many times, I used the original tool kit wrench to tighten the head nuts last time it was off,
