Hello Dick,

Thanks for your comments. I thought one would have to reduce the Tightening
Torque (ie the setting on the spanner) when using lubricant , as with less
friction one would get more tightening at the bolt with the same amount of
effort at the spanner, thereby overtightening the bolt for a given setting.

I shall have to dig out my Technical College books so as to refresh my
memory.

Thanks
