Over here we don't consider them hybrids....it is all we have ever seen. The 3/4 nuts on the 7/16 screws holding the front eyes are unusual to us, since normally that size would use either a 5/8 size nut, or more commonly a 7/16 nut. !/2 inch is indeed the size we use for 5/16 threaded fasteners.

Very few (to none) of the bolt heads on the Cdn carriers have any head markings that I can recall either.

Default spanner

I have always used a spanner that fits .

I don't give a hoot what the numbers on the spanner mean
