EZ Calc Torque Calculator – Bolting Specs Made Easy

EZ Calc graphic featuring bold dark blue title text on a diagonally split yellow and light gray background. Includes technical terms like stud, bolt, grip, load, nut, api, sae, and astm in varied font weights and ESI brand colors.

EZ Calc by ESI is a precision torque calculator designed for field technicians, bolting engineers, and maintenance planners working on flange joints across industrial pipelines. Whether you’re validating torque for A193 B7 studs or calculating grip length for a high-pressure flange, EZ Calc delivers instant results based on real-world specs and industry standards.

⚙️ What It Does:


• Calculates torque values, stud lengths, and fastener specs
• Supports standard and custom flange configurations
• Auto-populates bolt quantity, diameter, and flange thickness from flange lookup
• Accepts user-defined inputs for gasket thickness, K-factor, and yield strength
• Works on any device — no login, no software required

🚀 Why ESI’s EZ Calc?


• Fast, mobile-friendly interface for jobsite use
• Accurate torque specs based on flange geometry and material inputs
• Trusted by pipeline teams across refineries, chemical plants, and energy sectors
• Integrated with ESI’s rental and sales workflows for seamless quoting and tool selection

Input Parameters

Flange Lookup (Optional)

Selecting a flange will populate Bolt Qty, Dia, and Flange Thickness below.

e.g., A193 B7 is 105 ksi (724 MPa)

%

Bolt Geometry Inputs (For Length)

Thickness of a single flange.

Thickness of the compressed gasket.

ft-lbs

Calculated Bolt Load (Target) $\mathbf{F}$

--

lbs

Recommended Installation Tool

--

Based on calculated torque capacity

Bolt Geometry

Calculated Grip Length ($G$)

--

The total thickness of the clamped materials (in).

Recommended Bolt Length ($L$)

--

Standard bolt length to nearest $1/4$ inch (in).

Formulas Used:

Torque: $T = \frac{K \cdot D \cdot F}{12}$

Load: $F = A_t \cdot \sigma_{\text{target}}$

Grip Length: $G = (2 \times T_{flange}) + T_{gasket}$

Bolt Length: $L = G + 1.5 \cdot D \quad (\text{rounded up})$
