Default 1.502 inches as AF Socket

Hello All,

I just measured the crankshaft bolt on a Perkins 6354 diesel motor. The micrometer showed a reading of 1.502 inches or 38.16 mm.

Is the fractional measurement of 1.5 inches in a socket a tight enough fit or should I buy a socket that is measured a smaller fraction, such as a 16th or a 32nd?

I need to buy a new socket as none of my current stock fits the Perkins crankshaft bolt.

Kind regards
Lionel
