Hi mark,
I can't help with the quality of the bolts.
But the metric size head on BSF and whitworth nuts and bolts, has been around for at least 10 years now.
They are normally a cheap substitute.
Perhaps your supplier is cheapening there bolt quality as well.
Perhaps done so they can compete with other suppliers.
I don't know who your supplier is, but I find I get better quality results by going to a main supplier. Ie supplying the trade, and engineering world. Rather than a go between.
Tony.
