M1.6 Metric Thread

Below are the key dimensions for M1.6 metric threads: pitch, tap drill and clearance drill according to ISO 724:2023.
Discover our M1.6 Metric Thread Page, your indispensable tool for quick measurements on M1.6 metric threads. We've organised an extensive library of data for all the typical metric threads you'll implement in your components, focusing on key measurements such as thread pitch, tap drill, and clearance drill. It's a complete solution for professionals and hobbyists in need of reliable and accurate data.
All dimensions stated in are mm (millimetre)
The Major Diameter is the largest diameter on the thread and is measured from the thread crest to crest (peak of the thread).
This is the distance (mm) from one thread to the next, this can be measured from tip to tip or groove to groove. Pitch can also be defined as TPI, which stands for threads per inch.
Minor Diameter is the smallest diameter on the thread and is measured from the thread root to root (Bottom of the thread).
The angle between the thread faces. 60 degrees in the example above.
The thread will assemble when rotated clockwise. "righty tighty lefty loosely"
The thread will assemble when rotated counter-clockwise.
The pitch for an M1.6 thread is 0.35 mm.
The tap drill for an M1.6 thread is 1.25 mm.
The clearance drill for an M1.6 thread is 1.8 mm.
