Bolt Torque Data

For Spiral Wound Gaskets, ASME B16.5

The flanges should be in good condition and in compliance with ASME B16.5 and have a good surface
finish and flatness. Use only torque wrenches that have been calibrated and the proper bolt tightening
pattern must be followed with the desired torque value arrived at in a minimum of three equal
increments. All bolts in the flange should then be checked in order and in a counterclockwise direction.
