In my 1970's days employed in an automotive garage and parts sales it was common newby's would get sent to pick up muffler bearings and left-hand monkey wrenches.
Back when I was doing electrical work we sent a apprentice off to the parts store to get some split bolts. He figured that we had sent him on a wild goose chase so he went and screwed off of a few hours, but then he figured that he better at least show up at the parts house. From what he told us later he found out that there actually was a part that was commonly called a split bolt that is used to connect two large wires together.In my 1970's days employed in an automotive garage and parts sales it was common newby's would get sent to pick up muffler bearings and left-hand monkey wrenches.
