ASTM A193 Scope
Originally approved in 1936, this specification is heavily utilized in petroleum and chemical construction applications. The ASTM standard covers alloy steel and stainless steel bolting materials for high temperature or high pressure service. This specification includes fasteners intended for use in pressure vessels, valves, flanges, and fittings. Although, this material is often available in national coarse (UNC) thread pitches, if being used in traditional applications, threads are specified 8 threads per inch (tpi) for diameters above one inch.
Below is a basic summary of a few of the common grades. ASTM A193 covers a number of other standard specifications not covered in this description including B5, B6, and B16.

Once the crank pulley was removed, I was able to remove the lower timing belt cover. Then I made sure all the cam and crank gear marks all lined up. Then I removed the tensioner pulley and bolt. Then I remove the timing belt, starting at the water pump and moving counter clockwise, hang on to the belt to avoid an unexpected jump of the cam gear on the front bank. I remove the second idler pulley for the timing belt on the right, as well as, the two block off plates on the heads.
ALWAYS replace the tensioner bolt, washer, and lock washer. Lock washers should not be reused.
Follow all the torque specs in the manual. Take note of the different bolt lengths for the water pump and the timing belt cover.
Sealer is not to used anywhere. Only use OEM Mitsubishi gaskets and parts.
First bend starts at 0:20, second bend starts at 3:02.
Got some fully threaded 5/16″ x 6″ bolts from Dave Whitley when he came to pick up his custom hammer I modified for him. Decided to bend one for fun. I was feeling froggy so I followed that up with a tough “S” stamped 1/4″ x 6″ grade 5 bolt (my first time bending one in one sitting). Definitely a good workout.
After the reverse bend on the grade 5, I look at my hand. I heard a ripping sound and though I had just jumped on a train to Snap City. Thankfully, my hand is fine, but I was trying to figure out where the sound came from during the video. Probably my pants.
