Abstract
An apparatus for reducing the bending stress imparted to threaded fasteners in flanged connections is disclosed. The apparatus includes a radially tapered surface machined in the backface of the flanges to coact with the head of the threaded fastener as the threaded fastener is tightened to a predetermined torque value. This coaction compensates for flange deflection as the threaded fastener is tightened.
