RE: a stupid question
UNified Fine and UNified Course refers to the threads per inch on the bolt. A UNFBolt of the same size will have more TPI than the same size UNC Bolt. Both are used dependant on application. bolt-on items or engine parts.
So far I have foundthe odd 10mm Allen Bolt here and there.
