Question:

For this bolt, what do the listed dimensions refer to? Is 1.5 the length in inches? Is 22mm the square head width?

The dimensions for the Thule Replacement Stainless Steel T-bolt, # 853-5648, that are listed on the product page refer to the pitch of the threaded portion of the bolt and the length of the threaded portion of the bolt.

The threaded portion of the T-bolt has a 1.5 mm pitch and 22 mm length. 22 millimeters is just under 7/8 of an inch.

The square head of the T-Bolt is 3/4 inches by 3/4 inches and is 5/32 inches thick. I posted a photo of this item with the dimensions added to it for you to review.
