Notes

Only for full size bolts.
The allowed permanent extensions is 12.5 micrometres.
The fracture should not take place immediately under head of the bolt.
Where screws are threaded up to the head this property will be regarded as established even if a crack should be appear in the first thread, provided that the head does not snap off.
