Title: What do you think the torsional strength of an accords wheel stud is?
Post by: Monsterlover on May 11, 2011, 04:54:20 PM
Well, its a whole lot less than I can generate because I snapped that make the beast with two backser clean off

Japanese torque is only 60% of ours, try less hard next time.

Maybe too many shake weight classes?

These days I don't even have time to shake my own weight let alone actually exercise [laugh]

I was going to say that we would need to know the torque at the flywheel then the final ratio and the length of the drive axle either LH or RH and their respective diameters in order to get the torque at the hub and then use the standar wheel weight and diameter in order to convert the hub torque and put it on the wheel and then depending on the grade of steel the stud  has so that we know it's resistance to bending before cracking, then we could give you the answer ... but, I think you have solve this equation ... about 90Nm to tighten the wheels if steel and 110Nm if alloy ...

it was over tighten then ... have that happen a lot here ... "tire techs" get inspired on teh 'taktaktaktaktaktaktaktaktaktaktaktaktak" of the air gun to tighten them ... the shop i'm supervising, they can use it to loosen and just to drive it and then hand tighten with torque wrench

usually you'll dab a little anti seize ... i prefer gear oil 3 drops ...

Ok, what I meant, tighten it up spec with the torque wrench ... you know a hand tool !!!

I dunno....over the years I have seen plenty of cars with sheared off (shorn?) lug bolts


guess they aren't meant to be hard enough to distort the rim or something
