Insufficient clamping tension provided by hydraulic tensioners results in an inadequate clamping force applied to the bolts. This compromises the integrity of the assembly, its load in kN, and its sealing.<\/p>

Problem:<\/strong>
Insufficient clamping tension can lead to assembly failure and compromise its structural integrity.<\/p>

Solution:<\/strong>
Check the accuracy of the hydraulic tensioner using a TRAXX-M2 ultrasonic bolt tension measurement device<\/a>, verify the pressure of the hydraulic pump, and ensure that the size and type of the hydraulic tensioner are appropriate.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

2-Bolt Elongation Limits<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

The bolt elongation limit refers to the maximum allowable elongation of the bolt (it must remain within the elastic range). If exceeded, this can lead to plastic deformation or even bolt failure, compromising the integrity of the assembly.<\/p>


Problem:<\/strong>
Excessive elongation of the bolt can lead to its failure.<\/p>


Solution:<\/strong>
Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations on bolt elongation limits and never exceed them by monitoring and controlling the tightening with a TRAXX-M2.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Galling and seizing occur when contact surfaces suffer damage due to friction and become stuck, which can lead to thread deformation and disassembly difficulties.<\/p>


Problem:<\/strong>
Bolts may seize or gall during tightening, leading to thread damage and reduced performance.<\/p>


Solution:<\/strong>
Apply a suitable lubricant or anti-seizing compound to prevent these issues.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
