ThreadTables PDF

This document provides information on standard thread specifications including ISO metric, UNC inch, ISO inch G, and Whitworth threads. It includes tables with the nominal dimensions like major diameter, pitch diameter, and minor diameter. It also lists the tolerances for pitch diameter for nuts, bolts, and various tolerance classes. Additional information is provided on how to calculate nominal pitch diameter from major diameter and pitch. The purpose is to provide guidelines for dimensional tolerances of common thread standards.

P = Pitch
= Flank angle
D1 (drill size) can usually be found by subtracting
the pitch size from the major diameter (d/D).
i.e Drill size for M16x2 is 16-2= 14,0 mm
TPI pitches to mm = 25.4/Pitch
i.e. 14 TPI = 25.4/14 = 1,81 mm
Important:
These tables are made as a guideline for
calculating pitch diameter tolerances. As the
primary purpose is to measure with a digital
caliper (and the majority of pitch diameter
tolerances in these tables is more than 0,10
mm), most dimensions are calculated to the
nearest 0.01 mm.
When a tolerance in a table is used, it should
be remembered that the tolerance will often be
slightly larger for a finer pitch than standard.
i.e. the pitch diameter tolerance for M60x2 is
larger than for M36x2, which again is larger
than that for M16x2 which is standard. Using
the tolerances in these tables for a finer thread
than standard will, in most cases, only mean
that the thread is made to a slightly finer
tolerance than necessary.
For exact tolerances use the relevant, approved
standard.

the next table) is not the actual diameter.
The diameter stated is the approximate internal
pipe diameter. For example diameter d for a 1
