Common questions

What size drill do I use to tap M36?

Use a 32 mm drill. This is the standard tap drill for M36; for hard materials or deep threads a slightly larger drill reduces tapping torque.

What is the pitch of M36?

The pitch of M36 is 4 mm (coarse), meaning the thread advances that distance in one full turn.

Where can I find other ISO Metric Coarse Thread sizes?
