[QUOTE="71buickfreak, post: 2832425, member: 8373"] my Ingersol-Rand cordless 1/2" impact gun goes to 1000 ft lbs. for removal. things is bad ass. Only use it when I absolutely have to, it's a beast. As for the "engineering" statement, uh, no. Clamping force, period. It has nothing to do with stripping the threads. If your fastener is not up to the task of whatever you are asking it to do, then you need a higher grade fastener or larger diameter. In reality, the torque spec is actually an extrapolation of fastener stretch, which is a better indicator of clamping load, but in most cases stretch it too difficult to measure.
