Original table
The dimensions given for diameter at root of threads are also those for diameter of hole in nuts and diameter of lap drills. All bolts and studs 3/4 in. diameter and above, screwed into boilers, have 12 threads per inch, sharp thread, a taper of 1/16 in. per 1 inch; tap drill should be 9/64 in. less than normal diameter of bolts.
The table is based upon the following general formulæ for certain dimensions:
Short diam. rough nut or head=11/2 diam. of bolt + 1/8.
Short diam. finished nut or head=11/2 diam. of bolt + 1/16.
Thickness rough nut=diameter of bolt.
Thickness finished nut=diameter of bolt - 1/16.
Thickness rough head=1/2 short diameter.
Thickness finished head=diameter of bolt - 1/16.
