What does M mean in thread size?

M = This designates the fastener is a metric size. 10 = The nominal diameter in millimeters. 1.0 = The thread pitch, or distance between threads, in millimeters. 20 = The fastener’s length, in millimeters.

What is standard thread size?

Preferred sizes are 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0 and 1.2 mm, with additional defined sizes halfway between. The standard thread pitch is approximately 14 of the major diameter. The thread form is slightly modified to increase the minor diameter, and thus the strength of screws and taps.

What is M6 thread size?

6mm
M6 refers to a metric 6mm screw. The outside diameter of the threads is 6mm. The standard metric rack screw is actually an M6 x 1mm. The number “1mm” refers to 1 threads per millimeter.

What makes McMaster Carr screws so corrosion resistant?

These screws have good chemical resistance. A thread locker bonded to the threads prevents loosening from vibration. More corrosion resistant than 18-8 stainless steel screws, these screws have excellent resistance to chemicals and salt water. They have a thread locker to resist vibration.
