Least Expensive (But I Think Cool) F-Type Accessory?
#61
Actually, quite the contrary. Unless the torque can be smoothly applied to a free spinning bolt or nut, you can't be certain of the exact preload of the fastener. The tightness relies on the deflection of the threads rather than on sliding friction. Therefore the fastener has to be torqued within the specific range to flex the thread without permanently deforming the thread.
However, plenty of "experts" say it's also OK and recommend only using a small amount on the stud threads, and not getting it under the lug head.
I've always just brushed them off to make sure they were clean and used a good torque wrench.
