Common questions

What size drill do I use to tap M4.5?

Use a 3.75 mm drill. This is the standard tap drill for M4.5; for hard materials or deep threads a slightly larger drill reduces tapping torque.

What is the pitch of M4.5?

The pitch of M4.5 is 0.75 mm (coarse), meaning the thread advances that distance in one full turn.

Where can I find other ISO Metric Coarse Thread sizes?

The full ISO Metric Coarse Thread table, with every size and a live filter, is on its standard page, and the Thread Finder searches all 73 standards at once.

Reference values; computed values use the ISO basic profile. Verify against the current standard before production use.
