Looking at machine screws on Aircraft Spruce, they list:
MS24693C Non structural stainless machine screws - 55,000 PSI
MS24694C Structual stainless machine screws - 85,000 PSI
Ok, big difference of 30,000 PSI. But 55,000 PSI seems more than sufficient. When I think of all the screws on the RV, I cannot remotely imagine any of them being subjected to anywhere near 55,000 PSI. What am I missing? Mainly asking out of curiosity.
As an aside, what would one use the MS51959? Other than being 82? vs 100? for the 24693/26694, they look the same.
