The torque develops a compressive clamping force between parts called preload, which holds the components together and the reducing of friction between the surfaces has been shown to increase its value. Dry lubricants, also called coatings have been used and the results are satisfactory, but the use of liquid lubricants is still little explored, which is the aim of this study. For this, 14 titanium screws and 14 screws with (Diamond-Like Carbon) DLC coating were randomly assigned to four groups (Titanium; DLC, Titanium with oil, and DLC with oil) and subjected to five cycles of tightening and loosening. The screws of groups Titanium with oil and DLC with oil were lubricated with castor oil. The preload was measured by a preload gauge cell, especially developed for the study. The results of preloads and average removal torques for torques of 20 and 32Ncm at 2 different times were analyzed: after the first grip and after five consecutive grips. At the end of the analysis, the thread pitches were measured to rule out plastic deformation. The Group DLC had higher pre-load values at all time points, but it was only significant after the sequence grips with 32 Ncm, and in the absence of oil. It was concluded, therefore, that the castor oil lubrication was not able to significantly increase the preload values or removal torque. === O afrouxamento do parafuso ? uma complica??o frequentemente reportada em pr?teses sobre implantes. O torque desenvolve uma for?a compressiva de aperto entre as partes chamada pr?-carga, que mant?m os componentes unidos, e a redu??o do atrito entre as superf?cies tem demonstrado aumentar o seu valor. Lubrificantes secos, tamb?m chamados de recobrimentos, t?m sido utilizados e os resultados s?o satisfat?rios, contudo o emprego de lubrificantes l?quidos ainda ? pouco explorado, sendo o objetivo deste estudo. Para isso, 14 parafusos de tit?nio e 14 parafusos com recobrimento de Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) foram aleatoriamente alocados em quatro grupos (Tit?nio; DLC; Tit?nio com ?leo; e DLC com ?leo) e submetidos a cinco ciclos de aperto e desaperto. Os parafusos dos grupos Tit?nio com ?leo e DLC com ?leo foram lubrificados com ?leo de mamona. A pr?-carga foi mensurada por meio de uma c?lula aferidora de pr?-carga, desenvolvida especialmente para o estudo. Foram analisados os resultados das pr?-cargas e torques de remo??o m?dios para os torques de 20 e 32 Ncm em dois momentos distintos: ap?s o primeiro aperto e depois de cinco apertos consecutivos. Ao fim das an?lises, os passos de roscas foram mensurados para descartar deforma??es pl?sticas. O Grupo DLC apresentou maiores valores de pr?-carga em todos os momentos de avalia??o, contudo ele s? foi significativo ap?s a sequ?ncia de apertos com 32 Ncm, e na aus?ncia do ?leo. Concluiu-se, portanto, que a lubrifica??o com ?leo de mamona n?o foi capaz de aumentar significativamente os valores da pr?-carga ou do torque de remo??o.
