This number pair is optionally followed by the letters UNC, UNF or UNEF (Unified) if the diameter-pitch combination is from the coarse, fine, or extra fine series, and may also be followed by a tolerance class. Example: #6-32 UNC 2B (major diameter: 0.1380 inch, pitch: 32 tpi)
United States Standard thread (USS thread), also known as Sellers Standard thread, [1] Franklin Institute thread [1] and American Standard thread, [2] is a standard for inch based threaded fasteners and washers. [3] The USS standard is no longer supported. It, together with the SAE fastener standard, was incorporated into the Unified Thread ...
The #6-32 UNC is a UTS screw specifying a major thread diameter of #6 which is defined as 0.1380 inches (3.51 mm); and 32 tpi (threads per inch) which equates to a thread pitch of 0.031250 inches (0.7938 mm). The optional UNC specification indicates the standard coarse thread is used which is defined for #6 screws as 32 tpi rendering 'UNC ...

U.S. Standard threads became the National series (e.g., NC, NF, NEF), which became the Unified National series (e.g., UNC, UNF, UNEF); see Unified Thread Standard. As for U.S. Steel, it was once the largest steel company on earth, often an approved supplier, and not infrequently a sole source; hence its mention on drawings. UTS
From 1 ⁄ 4 in up to 1 + 1 ⁄ 2 in, thread pitch is the same in both systems except that the thread pitch for the 1 ⁄ 2 in bolt is 12 threads per inch (tpi) in BSW versus 13 tpi in the UNC. Thread form
For example, the major diameter of a 000-72 screw thread is .060 – (3 x .013) = 0.060 − 0.039 = .021 inches. For most size screws there are multiple TPI available, with the most common being designated a Unified Coarse Thread (UNC or UN) and Unified Fine Thread (UNF or UF).
Unified Thread Standard (UTS) Predominantly used in the United States and Canada. Includes Unified Coarse (UNC), Unified Fine (UNF), and Unified Extra Fine (UNEF) threads. [11] Thread sizes are denoted by a number or fractional diameter (e.g., 1/4-20 UNC, where "1/4" is the diameter in inches and "20" indicates 20 threads per inch).
