Tightening torque estimate

Target preload is 75% of proof load; torque is estimated from T = K · F · d.

Grade / classStress areaPreloadTorque
Class 8.8533.5 mm²232.05 kN1253.1 N·m
Class 10.9533.5 mm²332.08 kN1793.2 N·m
Class 12.9533.5 mm²388.09 kN2095.7 N·m
These figures assume a nut factor of K = 0.20 (dry / as-received steel). K captures thread and head friction and can swing torque by 30% or more — a lubricated joint needs noticeably less. Change the lubrication assumption in the bolt-torque calculator.

What tap drill do I need for M27 × 1.0?

For a M27 × 1.0 thread, drill the hole with a 26 mm tap drill (26 mm — the standard D − P rule) before tapping. That produces roughly 77% thread engagement, the usual target for a strong, tappable hole. The mating bolt has a major diameter of 27 mm and a pitch of 1 mm (25.4 TPI).

To pass a M27 × 1.0 bolt through a part rather than thread it, use a clearance hole: Close 28 · Normal 30 · Loose 32 mm.

All values are generated from the standard thread formulas (ISO 68-1 / ASME B1.1) and published standard tables — not hand-entered. See the full reference.
