What is the size of a tap drill?
TO ESTABLISH TAP DRILL SIZES FOR INCH SIZE ROLL FORMING TAPS TAP DRIlL SIZE = Basic Tap O.D. — (.0068 x % of Thread Desired) Threads Per Inch (EXAMPLE 1/4-20 Tap with 65% Thread) = .250 — (.0068 x 65) = .228 Dia. 20 PRACTICAL FORMULA – METRIC SIZES
How to calculate the required diameter of a tap hole?
65%, use 65 (not.65). (M6) 6mm x 1.00 tapped hole, follow first column down to 1.00 threads, then across to 75% of thread. This figure (.9743), when subtracted from 6mm diameter, is 5.0257, which is the required diameter of hole. See equation: M6 – (1.2990 X 75) = (6 -.9743) = 5.0257mm
What percentage of thread size is in a drill hole?
.013 X % of Full Thread* Drilled Hole Size (in.) = Basic Major Dia. Of Thread (in.) – # of Threads per Inch (T.P.I.) 65% (not.65).
How do you calculate the size of a drill hole?
Drilled Hole Size (in.) = Basic Major Dia. Of Thread (in.) – # of Threads per Inch (T.P.I.) 65% (not.65). 1/4-20 tapped hole, follow first column down to 20 threads, then across to 75% of thread. This figure (.0485), when subtracted from the.250 diameter, is.2015, which is the required diameter of hole. See equation:.250 -.0485 =.2015
