Note standard with B.S.W. thread.
When bolts from ¼ in to 1 in nominal size are hot forged, the tolerance on the width across flats shall be two and a half times the tolerance shown in the table and shall be unilaterally minus from maximumn size.
Alternative thickness values have been provided, in parentheses, for size ¼ in, ⅜ in to cater for different manufacturing processes.
This option shall not apply unless the purchaser in his enquiry and order specifically states which of the alternative thickness values he requires.
