This is really so that all the bolts can be visually confirmed to be torqued to spec. More of an inspection tool than an installation guide.

This is what torque wrenches and lockwire are for

Cross threaded is tighter than locktite.

Fifty shades of tight.

Just use it in the dark.
mattias101318
Holy smokes my brothers and I need this kind of stuff
nosoupforoldmen
Why....why do you need a colour code to know how tight your nuts are?
blarglebrle
This can be useful for mission critical applications where catching things before a problem occurs is important but not installation.
zenoshogun
Ah, so aircraft parts, where you expect a bolt to cost $800 anyway.

Colour blind? use colour reference for help
herbertjfarnsworthfusor
They're called "Smart Bolts" my guess is that the bolt is filled with viscous ink and the torque elongates the bolt and allows more pigment
In-between the viewing glass and the backdrop cylinder. Interesting tecc, but I don't know how strong they are.
Ryann85
So how did its torque increase without the bolt moving? This looks fake or staged
usernamemustbe4charactersorlongerr
Few Duggar’s would suffice

Color coded nuts are tight!

Am I over thinking this? Dont u just turn till u cant no more,
SageClaw
One and a half flats past sharp torque rise. Shesh.
banneduser2
If you needed to inspect slot of bolts I guess color coding by loose seems legit
ThePunishersVengefulBrother
Here's why: This is a checking bolt elongation:
Wait - my bicep mounted torque-o-meter is that close to a torque wrench in accuracy?
Assuming you've had some experience - yes.
sirleoiii
Had a fun experience with this in the Navy. For a training demonstration we all had to try to torque a bolt by feel. All of us were 1/2
WILDLY off, including our LPO's (one doubled the amount of force). Until our chief tried. He got in right on the money.
Zxaskad
Yeeeah after the first shade it's all just one colour to me. I'd need this in rainbow mode
Yupurineutah
Have you tried Enchroma glasses?
Unfortunately no, I've heard they can be quite expensive and it's only a few things I can't see red/black, grey/light blue, dark blue/purple
GorillaProfCaptDrApe
Just buy an electronic torque wrench. Save on the 10 dollar fasteners

How many Nm?
giraffpappa

If my math is right and the bolthead's the same as the nut (guessing 6mm), then it's about 0.00323974082 nautical miles. You're welcome.

Yes, they are expensive though.

How do they work exactly. Looks like magic to me :)

My guess is the thing in the middle becomes more dense (thus darker) as it rotates but could be totally wrong

Stop trying to make... whatever the fuck this is happen. It's not going to happen.
Polskifiat126p7
1) Clamp load is what you actually care about and aerospace fasteners have at best 30% error between torque and clamp load. This is a direct
Reading of clamp load. These are typically used on hubs of high speed rotating assemblies.
Secouss
Useless and really expensive... Expensive = "new best feature you need to buy"... Dial Torque is best!

There's no way to inspect those afterwards, except unscrew and retighten. I'd say there exists a niche use case for these.
TacoBellBody
a torque wrench would just not tighten beyond the setting so why would it have to be unscrewed?
Brain fart on my part, unless you need to check for overtightening. But still the only way to inspect torque is to try to retighten.
Doumdidoum
It's great in shops: you can do a visual inspection and be sure everything was tightened correctly.
accountnumbertoo
Or a sharpie to make witnesses lines
Reaper3087
Orrrrrrrr, if you're one of many people who don't have a torque wrench, you can use a normal one with this. Though probably expensive bolts
Also, looks like Nyloc nuts, so replace don't reuse...
NotAfraidToOffendYou
meh nylock can be reused, the fact that it's properly torqued is what it should be relying on to hold it in place.
MagiicHat
This system is for industrial applications, not 'people who don't have a basic tool'
And a bit ridiculous
ChloeRed
and you need to make sure the card doesn't get covered in crap/oily finger prints so the colours don't get darker?
BadGrammirNazi
Impact gun till it stops moving, duh
numbersaboutaircraftcarriers
These are more useful for follow-up inspections, so you can tell at a glance if any bolts have loosened. Not so much for the initial torque.
NationalGeographical
Just cover the fucker in locktite and hope she sticks.

What this aircraft said
Gooberiffic
Well that’s a great idea until you remember that safety wire is a thing
That's what Torque stripe is for, and it's a hell of a lot cheaper and quicker than these bolts
cfbshank36
What’s that? Never heard of a torque stripe before...
apparently it's official name is Torque Seal. At work we call it torque stripe.

HenryLongfellowIII
Torque isn't really a useful number when accuracy is a factor. Torque can be used as a sloppy proxy for stretch, which is the real deal.
Unless you calibrate them on an Akrotorque before use, and any good workshop will likely have an Akrotorque
Right. But that table does not account for the use of an Acrotorque or other torque tester to determine exactly what your wrench is set to
