I remember reading, somewhere, something that seems a little counter-intuitive regarding threads per inch. I'd like some elucidation from you more learned than I.
If I remember correctly, the greater the number of threads per inch on any given bolt, the stronger the bolt will hold.
It seems counter intuitive that the smaller threads of a large thread count will hold better than the larger threads of a courser count. On the other hand, there are more of them. Please give me the benefit of your experience and knowledge on this topic. Thanks!
