Installation Of Parallel Groove Clamps: Tighten The Bolt Torque In Stages In A Diagonal Sequence.
To ensure that the force is evenly distributed at each fastening point bimetal pg clamp, a torque wrench should be used to tighten the clamps gradually in a diagonal sequence to maintain a consistent clamping force between the structural surfaces and avoid deformation or stress concentration caused by excessive tightening on one side.
Before starting, adjust the torque wrench to the desired torque value and verify the bolt and nut specifications. Then, place the blackburn parallel groove clamp clamp on the mounting surface and insert the bolts into the corresponding holes. Next, lightly tighten each bolt one turn diagonally until all bolts are initially engaged.
After initial tightening, increase the torque slowly in two to three steps, using the same diagonal sequence, until the torque wrench gives a "click." This allows the clamps to gradually and evenly conform to the structural surfaces, ensuring consistent load-bearing capacity for each bolt.
