Limiting force on bolt given stiffness and initial preload evaluator uses Limiting Load on Bolt = Initial Preload in Bolt Due to Tightening of Nut*((Stiffness of Threaded Bolt+Combined Stiffness of Gasket And Parts)/Combined Stiffness of Gasket And Parts) to evaluate the Limiting Load on Bolt, Limiting force on bolt given stiffness and initial preload is defined as the amount of net force the bolt can hold until failure. It is the limiting value of force. Limiting Load on Bolt is denoted by Fl symbol.
How to evaluate Limiting force on bolt given stiffness and initial preload using this online evaluator? To use this online evaluator for Limiting force on bolt given stiffness and initial preload, enter Initial Preload in Bolt Due to Tightening of Nut (Pi), Stiffness of Threaded Bolt (kb') & Combined Stiffness of Gasket And Parts (kc') and hit the calculate button.
