Bolt with radius fillet between the head and body:
Washer with undercut chamfer for clearance of radius fillet in bolt:
Crankshafts have these same features on journals and have matching bearings.
Came in to find the correct way for the washer and learned this! I would assume in a typical application torque isn't as important thus the washer doesn't have a relief?
Dose this matter for studs? Since the nut doesn't have a fillet?

No, only needed for the fillet on the bolt head...
