Why is loosening torque lower than tightening torque?

AWwww….the cause of millions of arguments.
You should make a video about torqueing fasteners in general, i.e., when to measure torque, when not to, and the limitations of nominal and measured values. Seems to me people accept a lot of assumptions when they try to figure out the appropriate amount of torque for a fastener.
why did the first test show it took as much torque to remove a bolt as to install? The reason I ask is I just put a head on an engine and had to take it off the same day. The torque to install was ALMOST identical to the torque to remove.
Loctite makes a difference between breakloose and breakaway, what is it?
I have no idea why i came here but damn thats some good info! Just gotta see how i can get this into a conversation…
Rust that baby up and you'll see your spike! I don't think I've ever had to break a "pristine bolt free". Like me, they are all old and crusty as frig!
So what is the formula ? 90% ?
WTF, why didn't you end with advice? I'm sitting here, not knowin what to do with this dick in my hand. Please help.

Wouldn't lubrication allow more of a smooth application of torque? Maybe the bolt wasn't yielding, it just didn't reach the torque amount because of less friction from the lubricant. I could be way off.
Hey? Wadda Ending? Wher'm I s'posed to keep my dick? Thanks – Lumpy
I can’t imagine that this wedge theory applies to straight fasteners, only tapered ones, no?
i think you could have a better result and way so much easier with a needle torque wrench….
From my experience, it's always the opposite, but generally I work on mechanical repairs so fasteners have been sitting for years.
Removing old, corroded fastholders? Remember emember ember……..Ifen you don't wish to breakerher off, TIGHTEN FIRST, and she'll loosen no problem. Trust me, I'm a doctor.
