Product Information

Coarse threads are those with larger pitch (fewer threads per axial distance), and fine threads are those with smaller pitch (more threads per axial distance). Coarse threads have a larger threadform relative to screw diameter, whereas fine threads have a smaller threadform relative to screw diameter. And BS3643 part 2 provides tabulated diameters and tolerances for coarse and fine pitch threads, based on ISO 965/2. Metric Bolt Sizes ISO/TC/ 1 Business Plan, 2007-03-05, Version 1.3. Table 3: The market share of each screw thread, p. 7. Tables of the derived dimensions for screw diameters and pitches defined in ISO 261 are given in ISO 724.

Basic profile [ edit ] Basic profile of all ISO metric screw threads, where the male part has the external thread Below are some common spanner (wrench) sizes for metric screw threads. Hexagonal (generally abbreviated to "hex") head widths (width across flats, spanner size) are for DIN 934 hex nuts and hex head bolts. Other (usually smaller) sizes may occur to reduce weight or cost, including the small series flange bolts defined in ISO 4162 which typically have hexagonal head sizes corresponding to the smaller 1st choice thread size (eg. M6 small series flange bolts have 8mm hexagonal heads, as would normally be found on M5 bolts). [9]The thread values are derived from rounded Renard series. They are defined in ISO 3, with "1st choice" sizes being from the Rˈˈ10 series and "2nd choice" and "3rd choice" sizes being the remaining values from the Rˈˈ20 series. [5] First of all, there are lots of types of spanners and sizings which you will need to identify for the intended task, whether it’s plumbing, fixing a car or DIY. So before buying a spanner make sure you know exactly what you need! Most lists of spanner sizes are divided into 2 rows, Nominal Size and Spanner size. As noted, the specification of metric bolts includes the definition of thread pitch, but if this is omitted then a coarse pitch is assumed. Metric fasteners are available with either coarse or fine thread pitches with some metric bolt sizes offering extra fine thread pitch options. It is worth noting that metric bolts with a coarse thread pitch have more threads per inch (they are more closely spaced) than comparable imperial bolts. List of common metric bolt sizes. Metric Coarse The number 1.0 is the thread pitch of the bolt, which is the distance between threads, in millimeters.

Just to mix things up a little; for nuts and bolts with BSW or BSF threads, you will need a spanner marked with the diameter size of the thread e.g. a 1/4″BSW or BSF nut or bolt would require a spanner marked 1/4″BSW. METRIC The minor diameter D min and effective pitch diameter D p are derived from the major diameter and pitch as A raised, helical rib or ridge around the interior or exterior of a cylindrically shaped object. Threads are found on screws, nuts, and bolts. Diameter: the width of the bolt shank, the bolt head is not included. The defined diameter of metric bolts is actually slightly larger than the actual diameter. So an M8 bolt would have a diameter that’s slightly under 8mm.

As you can see, it is best to know the thread type of the nut and then choose the spanner size that will then give the best fit. Once you know the thread type and size of the nut, then it is simple to look up the correct spanner size. The coarse pitch is the commonly used default pitch for a given diameter. In addition, one or two smaller fine pitches are defined, for use in applications where the height of the normal coarse pitch would be unsuitable (e.g. threads in thin-walled pipes). The terms coarse and fine have (in this context) no relation to the manufacturing quality of the thread. Japan has a JIS metric screw thread standard that largely follows the ISO, but with some differences in pitch and head sizes. Pitch is the distance from the crest of one thread to the next or the distance from one thread groove to the next, measured from crest to crest. Pitch is also described as the number of threads per inch.

BS3643 defines the limits and tolerances for ISO screw thread gauges. The standard is divided into two parts. Part 1 is based on ISO 965/1 and ISO 965/3 providing the principles and basic data for specifications of ISO metric screw threads. Final report" (PDF). ntrs.nasa.gov. Archived from the original (PDF) on 14 March 2017 . Retrieved 7 July 2017. The relationship between the height H and the pitch P is found using the following equation where θ is half the included angle of the thread, in this case 30°: [3] H = 1 2 tan ⁡ θ ⋅ P = 3 2 ⋅ P ≈ 0.866025 ⋅ P {\displaystyle H={\frac {1}{2\tan \theta }}\cdot P={\frac {\sqrt {3}}{2}}\cdot P\approx 0.866025\cdot P} A standard metric M6 nut will be 10 mm across the flats, a 1/4″ UNC is just under 11mm and a 1/4″ BSW just over 11mm. Attempting to use the incorrect (oversize) spanner could cause the spanner to slip, rounding off the edges of the hexagon. Metric nuts and bolts are commonly referenced using ‘M’ sizes, for example: M3, M8, M12. But the size of a metric fastener is more accurately specified using diameter, pitch and length dimensions, in millimeters. For nuts the size dimensions used are simply diameter and pitch.

Metric bolts are referenced using “M” sizes, such as the M8 bolt size. The size of a metric bolt is specified using pitch, diameter, and length in millimeters. For example, in M8-1.0*20, the “M” means the Metric thread designation, the digit 8 refers to the Nominal diameter (in millimeters), 1.0 refers to the pitch, and 20 refers to the length. Sometimes, the pitch is omitted in the abbreviated format, such as M8-20, this means the bolt has a coarse thread. The bolt dimension can also be expressed in imperial units. There are many types of threads available for nuts and bolts, Metric, Unified (UNF/UNC and British Standard (BSW/BSF) are just three that we deal with, and they all have different measurements depending on the international standard they are manufactured to. For example, a metric M6 nut and bolt are very close to an imperial 1/4″ UNC/UNF thread. Measuring the thread manually you could be mistaken for thinking they are the same. Also, a 1/4″ BSW/BSF nut may sound similar but is different again in size. The "M" designation for metric screws indicates the nominal outer diameter of the screw thread, in millimetres. This is also referred to as the "major" diameter in the information below. It indicates the diameter of smooth-walled hole that a male thread (e.g. on a bolt) will pass through easily to connect to an internally threaded component (e.g. a nut) on the other side. That is, an M6 screw has a nominal outer diameter of 6 millimetres and will therefore be a well-located, co-axial fit in a hole drilled to 6mm diameter. The design principles of ISO general-purpose metric screw threads ("M" series threads) are defined in international standard ISO 68-1. [2] Each thread is characterized by its major diameter, D ( D maj in the diagram), and its pitch, P. ISO metric threads consist of a symmetric V-shaped thread. In the plane of the thread axis, the flanks of the V have an angle of 60° to each other. The thread depth is 0.54125 × pitch. The outermost 1⁄ 8 and the innermost 1⁄ 4 of the height H of the V-shape are cut off from the profile. The M stands for metric and the number after the ‘M’ refers to the width of the thread on the fastener in millimetres.
