Thread Definitions
• Pitch (P): The distance from a point on a screw
thread to a corresponding point on the next
thread (in/Threads).
• Angle of Thread (A): The angle between the
threads.
• Screw Axis: The longitudinal centerline.
• Lead: The distance a screw thread advances
axially in one turn.

Metric Thread Tables
• Standard screw thread tables are available in order
to look up the;
• Major diameter
• Pitch
• Tap drill size or Minor diameter
M8 X 25 X 1
Metric 8mm 25mm long Pitch (threads are 1mm apart)
Typically,
CH = H + 1/16 (1.5 mm)
and
C1 = D1 + 1/8 (3 mm)
Bolt and Screw Clearances
• Countersink:
Countersinks are angled
holes that are designed
to recess screws with
angled heads.
Typically,
C1 = D1 + 1/8 (3 mm)
