Hello all machinists. (This is a resend. Please cancell previous one)
I am in the midst of a computer swap and need more time. I just saw a query
about 7mm metric threads.
A 7mm thread is a standard ISO metric (coarse). Years ago we had metric fine
and metric coarse, to cause confusion. Some one may have had a problem with
connectors and trying to replace a 'metric' threaded screw; that could have
been a mix of fine and coarse.
Now we have ISO standards, threads are mostly given in 'metric' which would
be the coarse variety.
A 7mm thread is designated M 7 and the thread pitch is 1mm.
Incidently, a 6mm thread M 6 also has a 1mm pitch.
