3. Evaluation of Operational Tightening (TBSS Method)
Determining an appropriate tightening force relies on identifying an acceptable range, bounded by two fundamental values:
the lower limit , corresponding to the minimum threshold guaranteeing the joint’s long-term seal;
the upper limit , representing the maximum permissible limit before mechanical failure of the assembly components (flanges, bolts, gasket).
Between these two extremes lies the useful operating range, within which a target torque...
