Default Fine Thread vs Course Thread

Fine thread bolts are usually torqued 9% more than course threads, for whatever
that is worth. A harder bolt is stronger in "shear" or torsion but not in an
application where it is going to be bent. Your bolt is probably stronger than
the chain anyway, just be sure it is pulled up tight so there is no bending
force on the bolt..
