Common questions
What size drill do I use to tap #12 - 28 UNF?
Use a 4.70 drill. This is the standard tap drill for #12 - 28 UNF; for hard materials or deep threads a slightly larger drill reduces tapping torque.
What is the pitch of #12 - 28 UNF?
The pitch of #12 - 28 UNF is 0.907, meaning the thread advances that distance in one full turn.
