*  M22 x 2.5 and M27 x 3 for high strength structural steel fasteners only.

M and MJ are metric thread profiles.  Size designations not beginning with "M" in Table 1 are UN and UNJ thread profiles
(non-metric), no longer used anywhere in the world except in a few behind-the-times organizations in USA.

You can look up each value in Table 1, above, or you can use the Table 2 formulas to calculate the values yourself.  In the
following table, Dn is nominal shank diameter (fastener size) from Table 1.  Pitch p is fastener longitudinal length per
thread.  Note that p = 1 / n, where n = threads per unit length.  Le is thread engagement length.

Thread engagement length.  In general, according to Machine Design magazine, the minimum recommended length of
engagement is 0.75 to 1 times the bolt major diameter for threading into steel and other materials of comparable hardness;
and 1 to 1.5 times the bolt major diameter for threading into brass, cast iron, and aluminum.  These lengths of engagement
specified are for full threads engaged, not overall bolt length.  Regarding partial threads in the chamfers on the ends of internal or external threads, FED-STD-
H28/2B, 1991, Sect. 7.7.2, p. 61, specifies that approximately half the countersink or chamfer depth may be included in the length of engagement calculation.
