ASTM F 2482 (F-2482) determines the externally threaded bolts, studs, and cap screws as defined in Table 1, herein called fasteners, capable of indicating clamping forces up to yield strength during the tightening process or post installation residual tension, or both. Load-indicating fasteners utilize mechanical, electronic, or ultrasonic means to indicate fastener tension.
