The standard designation for a UTS thread is a number indicating the nominal (major) diameter of the thread, followed by the pitch measured in threads per inch.For diameters smaller than 1 / 4 inch, the diameter is indicated by an integer number defined in the standard; for all other diameters, the inch figure is given.
The nominal diameter of Metric (e.g. M8) and Unified (e.g. 5 ⁄ 16 in) threads is the theoretical major diameter of the male thread, which is truncated (diametrically) by 0.866 ⁄ 4 of the pitch from the dimension over the tips of the "fundamental" (sharp cornered) triangles.
A metric ISO screw thread is designated by the letter M followed by the value of the nominal diameter D (the maximum thread diameter) and the pitch P, both expressed in millimetres and separated by a dash or sometimes the multiplication sign, × (e.g. M8-1.25 or M8×1.25). If the pitch is the normally used "coarse" pitch listed in ISO 261 or ...

In 1906, the A.L.A.M developed what would be the SAE thread standard for threaded fasteners based on the USS standard but with a finer thread pitch. [6] [7] A Unified Thread Standard UNC thread is mechanically interchangeable with a USS thread of the same diameter.
If the thread does not use the normal coarse pitch (e.g. 1.25 mm in the case of M8), then the pitch in millimeters is also appended with a multiplication sign (e.g. "M8×1" if the screw thread has an outer diameter of 8 mm and advances by 1 mm per 360° rotation). The nominal diameter of a metric screw is the outer diameter of the thread.
British Standard Whitworth(BSW) is an imperial-unit-based screw threadstandard, devised and specified by Joseph Whitworthin 1841 and later adopted as a British Standard. It was the world's first national screw thread standard, and is the basis for many other standards, such as BSF, BSP, BSCon, and BSCopper. History.
The #6-32 UNC screw has a thread pitch of 1/32 in (0.031250 inches (0.7938 mm)). The #6-32 UNC is a UTS screw specifying a major thread diameter of #6 which is defined as 0.1380 inches (3.51 mm); and 32 tpi (threads per inch) which equates to a thread pitch of 0.031250 inches (0.7938 mm). The optional UNC specification indicates the standard ...
