TTY Bolts: A Good Read

[Pearlj10]

There are many, many discussions (sometimes heated) about TTY bolts, if they’re “special,” and if they should be reused. I read quite a few of these discussions. It this article is one of the clearest explanations that I’ve come across. I’m not trying to start another “do it, don’t do it” thread, just trying to pass along what I found to be an informative read by someone knowledgeable about fastener tech.
