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.
