We all know that the torque needed to loosen a fastener is usually higher than the torque at which the fastner is tightened. Is there a way to calculate this number.
I just got a new 3/8 Impact wrench and was doing some test with it. We torqued a 1in course thread bolt to 250 ft-lbs. Then used this impact to break it loose. It did it with no problems at 175 psi. Couldn't touch it at 90psi. ANy body know how to calculate that torque? |

You definitely have too much time on your hands. How about building some of my rear suspension?
