    Vibrating Motor Required Bolt torque

    Hi All, For a similar applications and a different motor fabricator, the bolt torque that the supplier provided us was 50% of the yield stress of the bolt. So, I'm a bit concern about of probability of the casing breakage if I want to torque it up to 70% yield. thanks,

    Thanks guys for replying. I m looking to find the minimum torque that i can use to avoid breakage of the casing and in a same time can keep the drive in place. I m thinking of using bolt grade 8.8 for this motor but using the torque specified in the standard bolt table is too high and may break...
