(1) The fastener sizes in preference class 1 are
suggested to be used in all designs. The sizes in this category
are generally readily available.
(2) Fasteners in preference class 2 should
be chosen only if a size in preference class 1 is not feasible. For
preference class 2 sizes, longer
lead times should be expected.
