Notes

  • Table 2 note (1): the major dia max of an internal thread is used in the design of tools; diameter acceptance is generally based on maximum material gaging. The internal major dia tolerance is not printed in Table 2; the value shown is Table 6 (0.1680P + 0.008). Full limits of minor dia normally apply to internal threads (para. 1.3); otherwise the designation is supplemented by the minor dia limits. Single class with zero allowance on all diameters (para. 2.6); single start (para. 2.4); parallel thread; reference temperature 20 deg C (para. 1.5.3).

Mates

0.60 UNM Internal takes a thread of the same standard at the same size and pitch. The standard mating external thread is class UNM. Check the fit with the standard pair →

Working out the mating options…

Different pitch or a different thread family never mate; the fit check runs over both tolerance zones.
