Default rawl bolt specification

Am I correct in saying that the rawlbolt specification screwfix use is
( thread x maximum fixture size), e.g. M12 x 60 can fix 60mm thick
fixture. It looks like that from the pictures. The B&Q ones appear to
be (thread x length of bolt) and the back of the pack tells you the
fixture size - since the bolt is usually 50mm, in B&Q, M12 x 110 is
needed for a 60mm fixture.
Does this sound correct ?
(Good news: a local screwfix counter has just opened (Nuneaton))
Thanks,
Simon.
