Common questions

What size drill do I use to tap M7?

Use a 6 mm drill. This is the standard tap drill for M7; for hard materials or deep threads a slightly larger drill reduces tapping torque.

What is the pitch of M7?

The pitch of M7 is 1 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.
