Selftap

The Selftap step enables tightening where the rundown torque required is greater than the Rundown complete torque, for example when tightening thin layers of metal using self-threading (or self-tapping) screws. The selftap window starts when the torque value reaches SelftapTorqueMin/2. The torque must reach over SelftapTorqueMin, but not pass SelftapTorqueMax, during the angle window.
