    This document provides a formula and instructions for calculating oil pressure needed for bolt tensioning tools. It defines terms like bolt load, tensioning force, and load transfer factor. The load transfer factor depends on bolt diameter and grip length. It gives an example calculation for a specific flange bolting application. It calculates residual bolt load, load transfer factor, initial bolt load, and finally the oil pressures needed for the bolt tensioning tool. Safety checks are recommended to avoid exceeding bolt material strength limits. Measurements are advised for highly accurate residual bolt stress values.

    OIL PRESSURE CALCULATION SHEET

    The formula widely used to calculate the oil pressure to be used with a bolt tensioning tool is given below along with
    definitions of the terms used;

    Grip Length
    BOLT LOAD

    Residual Bolt Load required when the tensioning operation is complete.

    TENSIONING FORCE

    The load that will be applied by the bolt tensioner during the tensioning operation.

    LOAD TRANSFER FACTOR


    Grip Length

    The ratio of tensioning force to bolt load.

    Load Transfer Factor = Tensioning Force = 1.01 + Bolt Diameter (mm)


    Bolt Load Grip Length (mm)

    If the Load Transfer Factor calculates to less than 1.10 then use 1.10.
    Tensioning Force = Bolt Load x Load Transfer Factor

    Oil Pressure (bar) = 10 x Tensioning Force (Newtons)


    Tool Pressure Area (mm2) Always check that the tensioning
    force will not exceed 95% of the yield
    Check that the oil pressure calculated does not exceed the maximum working strength of the bolt material. If it
    pressure of the bolt tensioning tool. Users who require highly accurate residual does, the grip length of the bolt must
    bolt stresses should perform a bolt extension measurement before and after
    be increased. Please contact your
    tensioning. In this way residual bolt stresses can be calculated from the actual
    bolt extensions measured. representative for advice on this.

    Load Transfer Factor Graph


    IMPORTANT - The chart and formula 1.50
    should only be used as a guide. The
    actual residual load can be affected by 1.45
    many factors including but are not limited 1.40
    to, damage to bolt and nut threads,
    Load Transfer Factor

    squareness of the nut washer face to 1.35


    the nut threads, squareness of the joint
    faces, condition of the joint face under the 1.30
    nut, and the use of washers. Users who
    1.25
    require very accurate and known residual
    bolt loads should use measurements 1.20
    to determine the actual residual load
    achieved. For example perform a bolt 1.15
    length measurement before and after
    tensioning, then calculate the residual 1.10
    load from the measured bolt extension. 1.05

    Ratio Bolt Grip Length /Bolt Diameter
    WORKED EXAMPLE

    Flange 18 inch 900 lb


    Bolt diameter (D) 1-7/8 inch UN8
    No. of bolts 20
    Bolt grip length (G) 204 mm
    Residual bolt stress required 275 N mm2 (40,000 psi)
    Bolt tensioning tool no. Tool No. 23A
    Hydraulic pressure area 5489.8 mm2

    Calculate residual load


    Bolt stress area 1567 sq mm (2.43 inch2)
    Residual load per bolt = 275 x 1567 / 1000
    = 430.9 kN

    Calculate load transfer factor


    Load transfer factor (LTF) = 1.01 + D/G where :-
    D = 1.875 x 25.4 = 47.652 mm
    G = 204 mm
    = 1.01 + (47.625 / 204)
    = 1.01 + 0.233
    = 1.243

    Calculate initial bolt load required


    Initial bolt load = Residual bolt load x load transfer factor
    = 430.9 kN x 1.243
    = 525.6 kN

    Calculate Oil pressure B


    Oil pressure B = Initial bolt load / Hydraulic pressure area
    = 525.6 kN / 5489.8 mm2 x 10
    = 957.4 bar (say 960 bar)

    Calculate Oil pressure A


    Oil pressure A = 1.25 x Oil pressure B = 957.4 x 1.25
    = 1196.7 bar (say 1200 bar)
