I absolutely agree with you, Jim! Propeller bolts are always considered one of the more critical hardware applications, in my experience. You want something that's spec'd. properly, with a known pedigree. Prop bolts can be subjected to very high stresses, and a failure can result in a very bad day. It seems like we're mixing bolts and nuts here too.
