The standard designation for a UTS thread is a number indicating the nominal (major) diameter of the thread, followed by the pitch measured in threads per inch.For diameters smaller than 1 / 4 inch, the diameter is indicated by an integer number defined in the standard; for all other diameters, the inch figure is given.
Pitch and TPI describe the same underlying physical property—merely in different terms. When the inch is used as the unit of measurement for pitch, TPI is the reciprocal of pitch and vice versa. For example, a 1 ⁄ 4-20 thread has 20 TPI, which means that its pitch is 1 ⁄ 20 inch (0.050 in or 1.27 mm).

The major minus pitch also works for inch-based threads, but you must first determine the pitch by looking at the number of treads per inch (TPI; for example, 1 ⁄ 20 = 0.050 and 1 ⁄ 13 ≈ 0.077), and your result will only land near a tap drill size (not directly on one).
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 ...
A typical lag screw can range in diameter from 4 to 20 mm or #10 to 1.25 in (4.83 to 31.75 mm), and lengths from 16 to 200 mm or 1 ⁄ 4 to 6 in (6.35 to 152.40 mm) or longer, with the coarse threads of a wood-screw or sheet-metal-screw threadform (but larger).
A metric ISO screw thread is designated by the letter M followed by the value of the nominal diameter D (the maximum thread diameter) and the pitch P, both expressed in millimetres and separated by a dash or sometimes the multiplication sign, × (e.g. M8-1.25 or M8×1.25). If the pitch is the normally used "coarse" pitch listed in ISO 261 or ...
The #6-32 UNC screw has a thread pitch of 1/32 in (0.031250 inches (0.7938 mm)).. 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).
