Thread Mill Drill Calculation Based on nominal tap drill diameter. Based on 0.003" or 0.075 mm probable mean oversize.

Major Thread Diameter for # Drills Drill #

To calculate the percent of full thread for a given hole diameter:

Thread Diameter

# 2 # 3 # 4 # 5 # 6 # 8

0.086 0.099 0.112 0.125 0.132 0.164 0.190 0.216

Basic major diameter of thread - Drill hole size 0.0130

% of thread = # of threads per inch •

76.96 Pitch (mm)

% of thread =

• [ Basic major diameter of thread - Drill hole size ]
