Dobrý den,
na základě níže uvedeného textu bych to asi přeložil jako předběžný nebo počáteční utahovací moment ložisek nábojů rejdových kol.

American cars (most Fords, my vehicle of choice) which ran with a slight preload had this method:
Clean, dry, and regrease the bearings, reinstall the seal, mount the hub, torque the nut to 25ft/lbs (to seat the parts firmly) while spinning the hub the direction it will turn, back off to zero preload, retorque to 10 in/lbs. Install castellated nut, cotter pin, and cap. My '90 manual says 25ft/lbs, then back off 1/8 turn. Chebbies usually went with zero preload after the same pretorque and release.

"Torque control to the elastic limit
This control is based on the principle that the Torque and the Angle have a linear relation after the pre-torque (snug point). From the relation Torque Increment X Angle Increment is obtained a differential quotient, or gradient. From the snug point on, this gradient will remain constant up to the elastic limit. From this moment on, due to a modification of relation Torque X Angle, this gradient starts to reduce significantly, and so the tightening process is interrupted."
