    A machine screw or bolt is usually a smaller fastener (less than 1 ⁄ 4 inch (6.35 mm) in diameter) threaded the entire length of its shank that usually has a recessed drive type (slotted, Phillips, etc.), usually intended to screw into a pre-formed thread, either a nut or a threaded (tapped) hole, unlike a wood or self-tapping screw. Machine ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bolt_(fastener)

    Where a fastener forms its own thread in the component being fastened, it is called a screw. [3] This is most obviously so when the thread is tapered (i.e. traditional wood screws), precluding the use of a nut, [3] or when a sheet metal screw or other thread-forming screw is used. A screw must always be turned to assemble the joint.

[3]: 85–86 They also allow the use of angled screwdrivers and trim-head screws. The socket-headed Robertson screws are self-centering and reduce cam out. They also stop a power tool when set, and can be more easily ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wrench_size

    Sizes that may interchange, depending on the precision needed, include 2 mm (close to 5 ⁄ 64 inch (1.98 mm)), 4 mm (close to 5 ⁄ 32 inch (3.97 mm)) and 8 mm (close to 5 ⁄ 16 inch (7.94 mm)). In reality, a wrench with a width across the flats of exactly 15 mm would fit too tightly to use on a bolt with a width across the flats of 15 mm.
