Do nut over-tighten.
Use a Torque wrench and set it at the required ft/lbs.

I had to think about this for a second before I realized what you are refering to.
If you are using a torque wrench and you are at the proper torque but the nut is not properly seated then I would make sure it is the right bolt and that it is properly seated. Take it out, check the bolt an threads and verify the torque and torque setting.
Something is not right.
Best of luck

This should never be the case.
Make sure the treads are clean and and properly lubricated. Different things require different preparation before torquing.
Some are torqued dry others with specific lubrication.
Make sure you are using the proper fastener (Nut or bolt).

Clean it first. The threads in the nut (and on the stud/bolt) must be clean, smooth and free of rust, loctite, oil, bits of gasket, etc. If the nut can't turn smoothly, you can't accurately torque it.
Good luck!

Remove the nut & repair the thread on the nut & bolt/stud, then torque.
