If a bolt is tightened past a certain point, it deforms by stretching, with the result that its diameter is reduced, if it is tightened past the elastic strain limit of the metal the reduction in diameter is permanent. This can often be seen afterwards in a reduced-diameter 'neck' in the shaft of the bolt where the highest stress occurred.
