This is a very strong bolt. If your application calls for a high
tensile bolt then this is a good choice. You could go for a Grade 12,
but this might be overkill. If the nuts are old, you should think
about getting new ones.
HTH Dom.
I agree! My nuts are getting old and I'm thinking about getting new ones...
Um...what's a lesbian doing with nuts, pray tell?
Got em hanging from the mirror of her Volvo.
Fuzzy, round not-dice? Got it.
