Abstract

A bolt tightening torque management structure for a bolt for fastening a component includes: the bolt including a plurality of projections of different heights on a bearing surface of a head; a non-conductive film that is formed on the surface of the component, has a shaft hole through which a shaft of the bolt extends, and has a predetermined size; and a conductive film that has the shaft hole and a plurality of grooves, through which the projections extend, is formed on the non-conductive film, and has the same planar shape as the non-conductive film. The projections other than the projection having the smallest height are configured to be in contact with the surface of the component when the tightening torque of the bolt is appropriate. The base of each projection has a width dimensioned to close the corresponding groove.
