NOTE
To determine breakaway torque, thread nut onto screw
or bolt until at least two threads stick out. Nut shall not
make contact with a mating part. Stop the nut. Torque
necessary to begin turning nut again is the breakaway
torque. Do not reuse self-locking nuts that do not meet
minimum breakaway torque.
