SCREW THREADS 1727<br />

ISO Metric Thread System.—ISO refers to the International Organization for St<strong>and</strong>ardization,<br />

a worldwide federation of national st<strong>and</strong>ards bodies (for example, the American<br />

National St<strong>and</strong>ards Institute is the ISO national body representing the United States) that<br />

develops st<strong>and</strong>ards on a very wide variety of subjects.<br />

The basic profile of ISO metric threads is specified in ISO 68 <strong>and</strong> shown in Fig. 2. The<br />

basic profile of this thread is very similar to that of the Unified thread, <strong>and</strong> as previously<br />

discussed, H is the height of a sharp V-thread, P is the pitch, D <strong>and</strong> d are the basic major<br />

diameters, D 2 <strong>and</strong> d 2 are the basic pitch diameters, <strong>and</strong> D 1 <strong>and</strong> d 1 are the basic minor diameters.<br />

Here also, capital letters designate the internal thread dimensions (D, D 2 , D 1 ), <strong>and</strong><br />

lowercase letters designate the external thread dimensions (d, d 2 , d 1 ). This metric thread is<br />

discussed in detail in the section METRIC SCREW THREADS starting on page 1783.<br />

Definitions of Screw <strong>Threads</strong><br />

The following definitions are based on American National St<strong>and</strong>ard ANSI/ASME<br />

B1.7M-1984 (R2001) “Nomenclature, Definitions, <strong>and</strong> Letter Symbols for Screw<br />

<strong>Threads</strong>,” <strong>and</strong> refer to both straight <strong>and</strong> taper threads.<br />

Actual Size: An actual size is a measured size.<br />

Allowance: An allowance is the prescribed difference between the design (maximum<br />

material) size <strong>and</strong> the basic size. It is numerically equal to the absolute value of the ISO<br />

term fundamental deviation.<br />

Axis of Thread: Thread axis is coincident with the axis of its pitch cylinder or cone.<br />

Basic Profile of Thread: The basic profile of a thread is the cyclical outline, in an axial<br />

plane, of the permanently established boundary between the provinces of the external <strong>and</strong><br />

internal threads. All deviations are with respect to this boundary.<br />

Basic Size: The basic size is that size from which the limits of size are derived by the<br />

application of allowances <strong>and</strong> tolerances.<br />

Bilateral Tolerance: This is a tolerance in which variation is permitted in both directions<br />

from the specified dimension.<br />

Black Crest Thread: This is a thread whose crest displays an unfinished cast, rolled, or<br />

forged surface.<br />

Blunt Start Thread: “Blunt start” designates the removal of the incomplete thread at the<br />

starting end of the thread. This is a feature of threaded parts that are repeatedly assembled<br />
