Nothing quite says ‘In the Lab’ like our Lab Boss, Jason Benford, pushing bolts to their breaking point, literally. In today’s In the Lab episode, Jason conducts a high-speed torque test to discover more about pushing bolts to their breaking points.
Our first ever In the Lab was the M24 bolt failure test. Tune in as Jason sets up our 1,750 Nm fixtured torque tool to break the M24 bolt all over again. But this time, Jason will do a breakdown of the different stages of tightening until we break the bolt again. How many newton meters will it take to break the bolt? Keep watching to find out for yourself!
