Is the Skidmore test being performed correctly? I believe the match marking should be done after performing the initial snug tightening. The nut is then turned until the Skidmore reads the minimum required tension. A torque value is read at this tension. The nut is then rotated further to a prescribed amount of turn. The amount of turn is measured from the initial match marking.
Chad, you are correct-we have updated the video's description to correct the step in the process that we completed in incorrect order. Thank you for your comment! -Randy

@@WurthIndustryNA Thanks for the response and clarification. I have enjoyed these episodes very much!
Here’s the kicker. The three cans of structural bolt shown you can identify by color. Left to right - Nucor, Lake Erie, BBI - Jinn Hurr
Now there's a fun fact that's Würth knowing!
Absolutely! :)
#absolutely, yes sir!
Wurth watching🤣
We're glad you think so!
