    The document lists K factors for different bolt conditions. The K factor is a measure of friction that depends on factors like the type and condition of bolts and coatings, presence of washers, and use of lubrication. Higher K factors indicate higher friction. New steel bolts with lubrication and washers have the lowest K factors around 0.16, while used bolts without lubrication or washers have K factors around 0.45. Different bolt coatings like Xylan, Teflon, or zinc-nickel plating result in varying K factors from 0.16 to 0.31 depending on the specific coating and whether lubrication is used.
