Abstract
The purpose of this document is to provide a standardized method for assessing the securing or locking effects of anaerobic adhesives used in threaded assemblies. It allows for a comparative evaluation of adhesive performance by defining key torque measurements, such as on torque (maximum torque for nut installation), input torque (force applied to overcome friction), and breakaway torque (initial torque required to unscrew an assembly). Additionally, the document references relevant standards for mechanical properties and testing of fasteners and materials, ensuring consistency and reliability in the application of the test method.
