How to add friction to Unity HingeJoint?

I found a similar question here and a seemingly correct way to achieve it: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/44497538/how-to-add-friction-to-unity-hingejoint

 using UnityEngine;
 
 public class JointFriction : MonoBehaviour
 {
     [Tooltip("mulitiplier for the angular velocity for the torque to apply.")]
     public float Friction = 0.4f;
 
     private HingeJoint _hinge;
     private Rigidbody _thisBody;
     private Rigidbody _connectedBody;
     private Vector3 _axis;  //local space
 
     // Use this for initialization
     void Start()
     {
         _hinge = GetComponent<HingeJoint>();
         _connectedBody = _hinge.connectedBody;
         _axis = _hinge.axis;
 
         _thisBody = GetComponent<Rigidbody>();
     }
 
     // Update is called once per frame
     void FixedUpdate()
     {
         var angularV = _hinge.velocity;
         //Debug.Log("angularV " + angularV);
         var worldAxis = transform.TransformVector(_axis);
         var worldTorque = Friction * angularV * worldAxis;
 
         _thisBody.AddTorque(-worldTorque);
         _connectedBody.AddTorque(worldTorque);
     }
 }
