In Response To: Re: titanium hose clamps (andre fourrier-Louisiana)

I had a lot of titanium 'fancy bits' on my race bike. Plenty of 'torque critical' machine screws included.

Having torqued hundreds (if not thousands) of 4, 5, and 6 millimeter bolts in my life, both steel and titanium, I can tell you without any doubt that titanium stretches.

I'm not saying that you can't get it tight, I'm just saying that you need to check it five minutes after you thought you were done.
