NOTE: Torque values in Appendix A are based on a nut factor K = 0.2. Adjustments to the torque should be considered 
if the installation utilizes bolting/lubrication with a nut factor other than K = 0.2. The following expression may be used 
for correction: 

Equation 1: T

= (T

1

/K

1

) * K

where T

1

 and K

1

 are the Fike default torque and nut factor values.
