Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

If it's not in a critical application, and you're not threading into say aluminum, you'll probably be fine to use the torque recommended for a carbon-steel fastener.

Suggestion

I also suggest using a lubricant on the threads of stainless bolts to prevent galling (cold welding) which can lead to the actual freezing together of threads.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 2Original post

Depends on the strength (PSI) of the bolt, and what it's threading into (nut, casting, etc.). If it's not in a critical application, and you're not threading into say aluminum, you'll probably be fine to use the torque recommended for a carbon-steel fastener. Hope this helps.

POST 3Original post

I also suggest using a lubricant on the threads of stainless bolts to prevent galling (cold welding) which can lead to the actual freezing together of threads. As Jeff said there are many kinds of stainless bolts so it depends...
