After our recent discussion about the 5/16" BSW (Witworth) bolt that thread=
s into the aluminum end plate on the generator, I decided to search thru al=
l my ziplock bags of British bolts to see if I could locate that one bolt. =
My 100 shipped disassembled. First, I separated all the 5/16" X 18tpi (coar=
se) bolts from the rest. Then I separated all the bolts with heads that fit=
 a 1/2" socket because I understood that the 5/16" BSW bolts have a larger =
head. I was left with 2 bolts. They are identical, except that one is about=
=C2=A01/2" long & the other is about 7/8" long. Neither has any markings on=
 the head of the bolt.=C2=A0My questions are:
If one is for the generator, where does the other one go?
The hex head on both bolts fit a King Dick socket marked 1/4W. The hex head=
 measures 0.52 across the flats. According the a "Key to Nut & Bolt Sizes" =
chart I have, this head size should be on a 1/4"W bolt but the bolt is 5/16=
" diameter X 18TPI. Do you see the contradiction? Also, this chart indicate=
s the hex head should measure 0.60 across the flats for a 5/16" BSW bolt.=

<div style="color:black;font:12pt Comic Sans MS, sans-serif;">After our recent 
discussion about the 5/16" BSW (Witworth) bolt that threads into the aluminum 
end plate on the generator, I decided to search thru all my ziplock bags of 
British bolts to see if I could locate that one bolt. My 100 shipped 
disassembled. First, I separated all the 5/16" X 18tpi (coarse) bolts from the 
rest. Then I separated all the bolts with heads that fit a 1/2" socket because 
I understood that the 5/16" BSW bolts have a larger head. I was left with 2 
bolts. They are identical, except that one is about&nbsp;<span 
style="background-color:transparent;font-size:12pt;">1/2" long &amp; the other 
is about 7/8" long. Neither has any markings on the head of the 
bolt.&nbsp;</span>
