Definition:
Torque: a twisting force that tends to cause rotation. Torque is the amount of energy it takes to spin the nut up along the threads of a bolt. Tension is the stretch or elongation in a bolt that provides the clamping force in a joint.
What happens when you over torque? The process of over torquing is one in which you are tightening a nut or bolt head, and stretching the bolt. You will notice the threads on the bottom bolt appear narrower than the bolt on the top. This bolt has stretched and essentially become weaker. It also makes a worse connection than a properly torqued bolt. While the bolt may feel tight, it is actually a looser connection.
The use of power tools is prohibited in ALL of our installations due to the damage it causes the hardware as well as the boards.
The average power tool is automatically set to torque 800-900ft.lbs.
Our boards are only rated to yield 18ft.lbs, which is 5X less than any power tool is torquing at.
This is an example of what happens when someone uses the wrong tools.
Recommended tool to use:
- Torque wrench (this tool allows you to set it to the correct torqueing ft. lbs. rated for our products)
Don’t forget to check out our video showing how to properly torque the bolts.

Romik running boards and step bars have remained one of the most popular truck accessories for decades for two main reasons: first, they make it easier for you and your passengers to get in your truck and second, they dramatically change the exterior style of every vehicle they're installed on. But with the aggressive styling of many modern trucks, it's hard to find a set of running boards that look like they belong. Usually, you'll end up with a functional running board that helps you in and out of the truck just fine, but the wrong design can easily make your new truck look out of date. Romik running boards and nerf bars use updated modern European designs that make it easy to bolt on extra utility without compromising the aggressive modern look of your truck.

You no longer have to deal with a truck-based vehicle and give up the car-like feel you're used to in order to drive rough roads.
