settlement behaviour

This refers to the way a tightened threaded connection, e.g. a drain plug, "settles" in that the threads suffer plastic deformation, causing the tension in the connection to relax slightly. This can lead to the connection becoming loose.

Don't think "setting" is right, but I don't have a problem with "settling"... thanks for the input and agree.
agree Witold Palka : it's neither settlement, nor setting, but settling, or creep :)
