Identifying bolt help
They are self tapping bolts. They are made like that.
The bolt creates the threads in the hole as it is tightened.
They are common when something is bolted to sheetmetal and saves a step during vehicle assembly.
They are not for thick metal, castings, forgings etc., but can be used if the threads are already formed in those parts.
