William D. Richards [wdr@virtcon.com] sent an example of a nut and bolt
.stl

this is a good example of a bad stl

no units ( I assume it is 2.953 inches long but then if it was for a
watch it could be 2.953 mm )

the nut does not have a hole through it and both are quite coarse.

There would be difficulty in turning the nut onto the bolt because of
the concave/convex chordal deviation interference's

does FormZ output a STEP or IGES file.
