ESTIMATIONCharacteristic features of imitation bolts:1. The area of bearing of the imitation bolt is too narrow. Therefore there is a risk of weakening torque and breaking the bolt.
2. Low accuracy of imitation bolt thread profile characteristics make it impossible to provide tightening torque in accordance with Komatsu standards.
3. Imitation bolts are 15% less hardened than Komatsu genuine bolts.
DETAILED COMPARISONImitation detail (at the right)
The area of bearing is 1/3 as wide as the genuine Komatsu bolts area of bearing, which tends to result in weakening the torque and breakage of the bolt.
