				Are there different grades of metric bolts? I need longer spindle bolts, and I want the right strength bolt.

				Since we're talking about bolts... I saw a website where a company was advertising a new type of tap.  They were saying that their idea was better than average because the threads were cut differently.  I can't remember what the exact details were, but the way I was told the bolt wouldn't break at the first thread that enters the tapped section.  So that leads me to the question, will the bolt break halfway into the threaded section?  They also claimed their system is on the space shuttle.  Does anyone have an opinion on this?
