The total number of configurations is the product of the selected sizes, lengths, and thread display values. There are three standard properties that determine the number of configurations: Size, Length, and Thread Display. You can select the ISO standard from Toolbox Standards in the Toolbox Standards tree, and from Bolts and Screws, select Hex Screw Grade AB ISO 4014. To reduce the number of configurations, select the hardware within each standard and clear unused sizes and values.įor example, Hex Screw Grade AB ISO 4014 in the ISO standard has over 1000 configurations by default. To simplify Toolbox configuration, select only the standards and hardware that you use.
