The prevention of fatigue in bolts by controlled pre-tensioning is investigated theoretically. It is shown that the effect of pre-tension is to reduce the alternating load in the bolt and that the stiffness of the fitting plays an important part in this reduction. Fatigue tests on ¾-in. B.S.F. bolts with various amounts of pre-tension show how this reduction in alternating load can prevent fatigue failure. A warning is given against relying on the benefits of pre-tensioning without ensuring that pre-tension is maintained in service.
