What is coarse thread metric?
Metric thread sizes are specified differently than inch thread sizes. For example, a 3/8-16 (coarse) thread has a 3/8″ nominal major diameter and 16 threads per inch, while a 3/8-24 (fine) thread has the same nominal major diameter and 24 threads per inch.
What is the difference between 6g and 6H threads?
The 5g indicates the tolerance class for the pitch diameter and 6g is the tolerance class for the major diameter. For example: M12 x 1 – 6H/5g6g indicates a tolerance class of 6H for the nut (female) thread and a 5g tolerance class for the pitch diameter with a 6g tolerance class for the major diameter.

What is M6 coarse thread?
M6 threads are 6mm metric screws. The standard metric rack screw is called M6 x 1. The ‘M’ means it’s metric. The ‘6’ is the outside diameter measured in millimeters, and the ‘1’ is the distance between adjacent threads, also in millimeters.
What is thread Class 6g?
Screws threads with identical external tolerances and pitch tolerances are expressed with a single tolerance letter and number. For instance, a screw with a 6g major diameter tolerance and a 6g pitch diameter tolerance would simply be written as “6g”.
What are the two most common thread forms?
The most common thread types are the inch-based Unified coarse / fine (UNC/UNF) and metric coarse / fine. Other types and their purposes are described at the end of this section.
