Posted 9/14/2010 17:41 (#1359463) Subject: A Question About Nuts and Bolts
Another rainy day (aren't they all?), so spending more time out in the shop. A question I have is: why do 7/16" bolts need a 5/8" wrench but the nuts use an 11/16" wrench? All other sizes seem to use the same size wrenches for both the bolt and the nut, like 3/8" uses 9/16" on both ends, etc. Why is the 7/16ths an oddball?
All this rain and no harvest must be getting to me.
