How are M bolts measured?
Do not measure the head of the bolt, measure the threaded part, outside of the threads. If your bolt is metric, then the diameter is stated using the letter “M”. For example, if your bolt has a diameter of 4mm then it is called an ‘M4 bolt’ if your bolt is imperial then it will be measured in inches.
