Default Re: Dumb Question About Nut/Bolt Diameters

It's sometimes the case that a nut and bolt that have the same head size will have different diameters for the threaded portion. Or vice versa - for example it's common to see a 1/4" bolt with a 1/2" head, but the 1/4" nut that fits it has a 7/16" head.
