As correctly pointed out by ASimpson, there are classification of fits which are application specific. He lists the metric version, imperial are equivalents noting 1.0 inch = 25.4 mm. There are several good references on this, look to the web. But the Machinist Handbook does discuss this, at least in the 23rd edition.
How does Dhea work? DHEA is a parent hormone produced by the adrenal glands near the kidneys and in the liver. In men, DHEA is also secreted by the testes. It is changed in the body to a hormone called androstenedione. Androstenedione is then changed into the major male and female hormones.
Evidence is inconclusive in regards to the effect of DHEA on strength in the elderly. In middle-aged men, no statistically significant effect of DHEA supplementation on lean body mass, strength, or testosterone levels was found in a randomized placebo-controlled trial.
