See /torque.htm. The tension in the bolts, is also the clamping force on the flange.

kelly That part I am hapy with. What I am trying to do is to identify what total clamping force is needed for a flange to not leak due to a given pressure. I accept it depends on diameter, number of bolts etc. I believe there is a standard for this, but I am not sure what?
