@kporter.stuff: Tension-Indicating Hex Head Screws, How the Color-Changing Head Works Tension-indicating hex head screws: the bolt head that changes color when properly torqued 🙌🏼⚙️ #fastenerdesign #torqueindicator #mechanicalengineering #dfm #qualitycontrol
That sure beats the pocket and having to use a depth micrometer to determine stretch. I do wonder how the color changing end would hold up to thermal temperatures.

What happens if it's over torqued?

How long is the compound good for once it’s torqued? How often would these bolts need to be replaced?

You mentioned that I can be checked at a glance. Does the color change back if it loosens?

Does it react based on the stretch the threads as an approximation of the clamping force?

I have never seen this before! This is great!
If it is tightened then loosened, does the indicator return to red?

I just have my mechanics uses some red locktite so it always shows good.

So you have to use a box end wrench? A socket and ratchet wouldn’t work as u can’t see the indicator

Very cool! Is there a specific use/industry that uses them?

It would be super cool to get two of these to demonstrate dry & wet torque.
