Mighty Chimp i don't know of any U K industries
that have gone back to FFU units. I know of 3 examples of U K industry
that have changed from FFU units to metric. These companys are the Perkins
diesel engine company, the Lister petter diesel engine company and the Triumph
motor cycle company. Triumph was out of business for a few years i don't
know if before they went out of business if they used U S standard fasteners or
Witworth. Anyway witch ever they used before they went out of business when
they came back they use totally metric fasteners I would like to ask the
BWMA about this. If inch fasteners are so much better why did these
companys change. I don't believe the Government of the U K forced these
companys to use metric fasteners.
