Tom Posted September 4, 2003 Share Posted September 4, 2003 What size socket set could I expect to need for an M16 Hex nut/bolt. Is that the same size as scaff - 21mm? Or does anybody know a handy resource for this sort of info, plus stuff like what size pilot holes to drill for self tappers etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted September 4, 2003 Share Posted September 4, 2003 according to 'Machinery's Handbook' it's 24mm across the flats for M16. I can recommend this book as THE resource for such info. New editions are very expensive but can be found 2nd hand for a few quid. (I paid £3.95 for mine). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
