I bought a couple of track nuts from my LBS for a front axle a while ago. Put them on ok, but then discovered that my carry along spanner didn't fit them. The are 15.2mm across, so a 15mm spanner doesn't fit and a 16mm is a bit loose. 15.2mm doesn't match any reasonable inch size as far as I can see: it's 0.6". Are they just out of tolerance? Or some previously unknown standard. It's a 9mmx1mm axle.
