In 1755, having risen to be a mate, Cook joined the Royal Navy, and after four years' service was, on the recommendation of Sir Hugh Palliser, his commander, appointed master successively of the sloop Grampus, of the Garland and of the Solebay, in the last of which he served in the St. Lawrence.
Tap Bolt vs Cap Screw. What is the difference between a tap bolt and a cap screw? A tap bolt is (typically) a fully threaded hex bolt, while a cap screw is (typically) a hex head bolt that will be installed by turning the head of the bolt (screw) instead of tightening it with a nut.
Broadly speaking, nuts and bolts come in two types: - ISO metric screw thread, and. - Unified Thread Standard (UTS: for the USA and Canada) To cut a really long story really short, the M is the major or nominal diameter (in mm or inch).
