    There are 5 main types of threads: unified, metric, square, ACME, and buttress threads. Each thread has a different shape and is designed for specific uses - unified and metric threads are general purpose, square threads are ideal for power transmission, ACME threads are stronger than square, and buttress threads handle heavy forces in one direction like on truck jacks.
