Abstract: This nut torque indicator cover includes a cover piece that is joined to an indicator piece. It is fastened to a nut/bolt assembly primarily by pressing it down onto and over the exposed threads of the bolt so that the indicator piece registers with the hex portion of the nut. A snap fit design is incorporated into the nut torque indicator cover such that the cover piece and indicator piece can rotate relative to each other. The cover piece fastens securely to the external threads of the bolt providing protection to the threads, while the indicator piece, secured by the hex flats of the nut, indicates the nut circumferential position, allowing an indication of any torque loss.

Abstract translation: 该螺母扭矩指示器盖包括接合到指示器件的盖件。 它主要通过将其压在螺栓的暴露的螺纹上和上方而紧固到螺母/螺栓组件，使得指示器件与螺母的六边形部分对准。 卡扣配合设计被并入到螺母扭矩指示器盖中，使得盖件和指示器件可以相对于彼此旋转。 盖子牢固地紧固到螺栓的外螺纹上，为螺纹提供保护，而由螺母的六角形平面固定的指示器表示螺母圆周位置，允许指示任何扭矩损失。
