BS 1083:1951 and 916:1953 gives BSW and BSF bolts as identical in
dimensions except for TPI. Source Kemp's Engineers Year Book 1962.
Noticing the date makes me think it would be worthwhile moving into
the 21st century. Anyone have any thoughts about book versus cd
versions of Machinery's Handbook?
Thanks.
