Review of Australian Standards. To keep abreast of progress in industry, Australian Standards are subjectto periodic review and are kept up to date by the issue of amendments or new editions as necessary. It isimportant therefore that Standards users ensure that they are in possession of the latest edition, and anyamendments thereto.Full details of all Australian Standards and related publications wil l be found in the Standards AustraliaCatalogue of Publications; this information is supplemented each month by the magazine The AustralianStandard, which subscribing members receive, and which gives details of new publications, new edit ionsand amendments, and of withdrawn Standards.Suggestions for improvements to Australian Standards, addressed to the head off ice of Standards Australia,are welcomed. Noti fication of any inaccuracy or ambiguity found in an Australian Standard should be madewithout delay in order that the matter may be investigated and appropriate action taken.

This Standard was issued in draft form for comment as DR 83185.

PREFACE

This edition of this standard was preapred by the Assoications Committee on ScrewThreads, to supersede AS 1721-1975. AS 1721-1975 was intended to cover theanticipated needs of Australian industry, under the metric system, for general purposemetric screw threads.Since AS 1721 was first published, the major ISO standards dealing with metric screwthreads (see later listing) have been revised, and are now in conflict with theinformation given in AS 1721-1975. This is particularly true with respect to the gradedpitch series of screw threads, the root curvature for external threads, and the limitsspecified for the thread roots of both external and internal threads.A further important consideration is that the ISO standards for metric screw threadsare now being adopted virtually unchanged by most developed and developingcountries, and therefore it is important that the Australian standards be aligned withtheir ISO counterparts as much as possible. This has been the aim in this edition ofAS 1721.During the preparation of AS 1721 in the early 1970s, it was noted by the committeethat the ISO symbols used for the various screw thread parameters were illogical, andso a more logical system was introduced in the Australian standards. This wassupported by sustained comment to ISO/TC1 proposing the Australian sysmbols.Unfortunately the Australian proposals were not accepted by ISO/TC1 and the originalISO symbols were retained. One of the major changes in this edition therefore hasbeen to introduce the ISO symbols for the screw thread parameters.Another major change has been to include in total the ISO diameter/pitchcombinations, for both the graded and constant pitch thread series.When AS 1721-1975 was being prepared, the ISO standards contained only a fairlycomprehensive coarse pitch series, a restricted fine pitch series and a constant pitchseries. The latter featured several choices of pitches which could be associated withany given diameter. It was considered that if these had been included in the Australianstandard, in that form, at that time, the result almost certainly would have been anover-proliferation of diameter/pitch combinations, to the detriment of AustralianindustryThe committee realized that in the early days of metric conversion, industry wouldneed guidance on the selection of suitable diameter/pitch combinations, because therewas little experience with respect to metric screw threads. It therefore seemed practicalto base the graded pitch screw thread series on previous experience with inch screwthreads. With this in mind the following action was taken:(a) To adopt the ISO coarse pitch series, but extend the size range to 250 mm

diameter, by utilizing a constant 6 mm pitch for sizes over 68 mm. The ISO seriescovers diameters from 1 mm to 68 mm inclusive.

(b) To adopt the ISO fine pitch series, but interpolate additional sizes and extend thesize range to 300 mm diameter by utilizing a 3 mm pitch for diameters from36 mm to 52 mm inclusive, a 4 mm pitch for diameters from 55 mm to 250 mminclusive, and a 6 mm pitch for diameters from 255 mm to 300 mm inclusive.

(c) Not to adopt the ISO constant pitch series.(d) To devise an extra-fine pitch series covering diameters from 8 mm to 300 mm

inclusive.(e) To devise an extra-coarse pitch series covering diameters from 1.6 mm to 24 mm

inclusive.The above were included in AS 1721-1975, and again were proposed for adoption byISO. In the 1980 edition of ISO 965, some of the Australian comment was adopted,more specifically that dealing with the fine-pitch thread series, which has now beensubstantially extended.At the same time experience in Australia has shown that items (d) and (e) above havereceived little or no support from Australian industry; item (b) in sizes over about36 mm also was not used, but there was a growing requirement for the ISOdiameter/pitch combinations by various sectors of industry.It was therefore agreed that this edition of AS 1721 would feature only the ISOdiameter/pitch combinations.

The final major change is with regard to the limits given for the thread roots on bothexternal and internal threads. In AS 1721-1975 these limits were completely specified,whereas in the ISO standards only the minimum minor diameter is specified forexternal threads and the nominal (basic) major diameter is given for internal threads;the actual limits being indirectly controlled by the length of straight flanks.Furthermore a root curvature for external threads is only specified for threads intendedfor fasteners of property Class 8.8 and above. All other external threads may have aroot configuration in accordance with the basic/design profile.It was considered that the ISO approach on the limits for the thread roots was practicaland should be adopted, because this would permit maximum flexibility in manufacturewithout being unduly detrimental to either the strength of the screw thread or to itsassembly properties. However, the ISO root curvature for external threads taken to theextreme could cause problems by introducing a notch effect, which may lead to fatiguefailure in threads in some steels which have a high tensile level and/or have beenseverely cold worked. A cautionary statement to this effect has therefore been includedin this edition.This standard has been based on and is in complete alignment with the following ISOstandards:ISO 681973 ISO General Purpose Screw Threads Basic ProfileISO 2611973 ISO General Purpose Metric Screw Threads General PlanISO 2621973 ISO General Purpose Metric Screw Threads Selected Sizes for

GENERAL PURPOSE METRIC SCREW THREADS

SECTION 1. SCOPE AND GENERAL

1.1 SCOPE. This standard specifies requirements forsingle start parallel metric screw threads having the ISObasic profile for triangular screw threads, covering the sizerange from 1 mm diameter to 355 mm diameter inclusive.The metric screw thread system comprises the followingseries:(a) The ISO coarse pitch series, which gives graded

diameter/pitch combinations in diameters from 1 mm to68 mm inclusive, and is predominantly intended forcommercially produced threaded fasteners.

(b) The ISO fine pitch series, which gives gradeddiameter/pitch combinations in diameters from 1 mm to33 mm inclusive.

(c) The ISO constant pitch series, which gives a series ofstandard pitches to be associated with diameters from8 mm to 355 mm inclusive.

The standard gives information on screw thread parameters,tolerances, deviations, thread classes, designation andsymbols.Due to the methods adopted by ISO for rounding thetabulated values (see Appendix A), the values for the variousparameters given in the tables are to be taken as authoritativefor the application of this standard.Appendices are included giving the basis of the tabulatedvalues, guidelines (with examples) for calculating the limitsof size of untabulated screw threads and notes on theproduction of screw threads.

NOTE: The ISO metric screw thread system, as given in thisstandard, does not provide for interference fit threads.

1.2 APPLICATION. This standard gives information onthe design, manufacture and use of the ISO metric parallelscrew thread system.The standard is intended for adoption by industry andgovernment authorities concerned with the design,manufacture and/or use of metric screw threads.1.3 REFERENCED DOCUMENTS. The followingstandards are referred to in this standard:AS 1014 Gauging of Metric Screw ThreadsAS 1098 Roller-type Screw Calliper GaugesAS 1110 ISO Metric Hexagon Precision Bolts and ScrewsAS 1214 Hot-dip Galvanized Coatings on Threaded

NOTES:1. For details of root curvature, see Clause 2.6.2 and Fig. 2.8.2. The actual form of any rounding of the crests or roots of the thread will not be detected by conventional gauging since such gauges are cleared

at the crest and root and only assess the straight flanks over the height of the basic profile, i.e. 5/8H radial depth.3. If assessment of the root curvature is required, verification by optical projection is necessary and it is to be stated in the design requirements.

2.6 ROOT CONTOURS.2.6.1 Internal threads. The actual root contour shall not atany point transgress the basic profile. In practice the tapsused to produce internal threads will normally produce arounded thread root cleared beyond a width of P/8 as shownin Fig. 2.2.2.6.2 External threads. The actual root contour shall notat any point transgress the basic profile. However it isrecommended that the root profile should not be flat, withsharp corners, but should be smoothly rounded.For threads on fasteners of property Class 8.8 and higher (seeAS 1110 and AS 1252) and those on materials with similarproperties, the root profile shall have a non-reversingcurvature, no portion of which shall have a radius less thanRmin, which is tangential to the thread flank. The root profilemay be comprised of arcs of minimum radius Rmin, to whichthe flanks and a flat at the root are tangential (see Fig. 2.8).The values of Rmin are given in Table 2.2.The maximum truncation is

and the minimum truncation is 0.125P H/7The above principle is recommended for all other externalthreads, particularly those used in applications subject tofatigue or impact.External threads must be accepted by a GO screw ring or GOscrew calliper gauge.

It is not practical to specify limits for the minor diameter of anexternal thread. A minimum minor diameter can be derivedwhen the blend radius equals 0.125P, and the flanks are at theleast material condition, but as the flanks approach themaximum material condition the maximum minor diameterwill tend to reduce and the limiting values are dependent onthe actual crest diameter and pitch diameter of the gauge aswell as the subject screw thread (see Fig. 2.8).As noted in Fig. 2.3, conventional gauging will not examinethe root contours and it is recommended that gauging besupplemented by profile projection of the external thread root.

SECTION 3. GENERAL PLAN

3.1 SCOPE OF SECTION. This Section sets out thegeneral plan, and specifies the basic dimensions for ISOgeneral purpose metric screw threads in diameters from1 mm to 300 mm inclusive. It covers diameter/pitchcombinations for the ISO coarse, fine and constant pitchseries together with information on the selection ofdiameter/pitch combinations not tabled in this standard.It should be noted that the terms coarse series and fineseries relate to the pitch of the thread and no concept ofquality should be attached to these terms.3.2 THREAD SERIES.3.2.1 General. The ISO metric thread series consists of agraded series of diameters associated with suitable pitches.The pitches selected may vary with diameter or may beconstant. Both types of series are included in this standardand are given in Table 3.1.3.2.2 Coarse pitch series. The coarse pitch series is mainlyintended for metric threaded fasteners and other generalengineering applications. This series gives good resistance tostripping and is suitable for use with the lower strength andbrittle materials such as cast iron, low carbon steels andnon-ferrous metals.3.2.3 Fine pitch series. The fine pitch series is suitable foruse where a finer pitch series than the coarse pitch series isrequired. This series is less resistant to stripping and torepeated tightening than the coarse pitch series. It is notrecommended for high duty fasteners over 24 mm diameter,but provided that the length of axial engagement is adequate,it should give sufficient resistance to stripping to develop thefull tensile load carrying capacity of the externally threadedmember; and subject to the same provisions may be usedsatisfactorily in the softer materials. The threads of this serieshave a greater stress area than those of the coarse pitchseries.Particular attention is drawn to the fact that this series hasfiner pitches than those associated with either the BritishStandard Whitworth fine series (BSF) or the Unified fineseries (UNF). Therefore it should not be assumed that sizefor size it is always suitable for particular uses for which theBSF or UNF series were previously employed; quite oftenthe coarse pitch series would be more appropriate.

3.2.4 Constant pitch series. The constant pitch series ismainly intended for use in special circumstances, for which thecoarse or fine pitch series is unsuitable or inadequate. It isarranged to provide a graded system of diameter/pitchcombinations.

3.2.5 Selection of diameter/pitch combinations.3.2.5.1. Standard series. Having regard to the informationgiven in Clauses 3.2.2, 3.2.3 and 3.2.4, the choice should firstbe made from the coarse pitch series, then the fine pitch series.If these are not suitable, then select from the constant pitchseries using one of the standard pitches for a given diameterwherever possible (see Table 3.1).The diameter should be selected on the basis of the preferenceslisted in Table 3.1.

3.2.5.2 Non-standard series. If screw threads finer than thosegiven in Table 3.1 are necessary, only the following pitchesshall be used:3, 2, 1.5, 1, 0.75, 0.5, 0.35, 0.25, 0.2 mmIt should be noted that it becomes increasingly difficult inproduction to comply with the thread tolerances as thediameter is increased for any given pitch. The recommendedmaximum diameter to be associated with a particular pitch isgiven in Table 3.2.In the diameter range 150 mm to 355 mm, where it isnecessary to use a thread with a pitch coarser than 6 mm, the8 mm pitch should be used.

3.3 BASIC DIMENSIONS. Values for the basic pitchdiameter and basic minor diameter for all the diameter/pitchcombinations given in Table 3.1 are given in Table 3.3.These values rounded to the third decimal place have beencalculated from the following formulas:

D2 = D - 2 3/8H = D - 0.6495Pd2 = d - 2 3/8H = d - 0.6495PD1 = D - 2 5/8H = D - 1.0825Pd1 = d - 2 5/8H = d - 1.0825P

SECTION 4. TOLERANCES, DEVIATIONS AND TOLERANCE CLASSES

4.1 SCOPE OF SECTION. This Section sets out theISO thread tolerance system and gives information on thetolerance grades, fundamental deviations and toleranceclasses used for metric threads.The Section also gives information on the lengths ofthread engagement, together with recommended tolerancequalities for external and internal threads and theirsuggested application. Also included are tabulated valuesof the upper and lower deviations for the pitch diameterand minor diameter of internal threads, and the pitchdiameter and major diameter of external threads, for allthe tolerance classes covered by the thread tolerancesystem.Formulas for the derivation of the tolerance grades andfundamental deviations are given in Appendix A.It should be noted that because of the rounding rules usedfor the tabulated values, such values should be taken asauthoritative in the application of the thread system. (Forfurther information, see Appendix A.)4.2 TOLERANCE POSITIONS. The followingtolerance positions are given in this standard:(a) For internal threads:

G with a positive fundamental deviation.H with zero fundamental deviation.See Figs 2.4 and 2.5.

(b) For external threads:e, f and g with a negative fundamental deviation.h with zero fundamental deviation.

Values of the fundamental deviations are given inTable 4.1

NOTE: Tolerance position e is limited to pitches 0.5 mm andcoarser, and tolerance position f to pitches 0.35 mm and coarser.

4.3 FUNDAMENTAL DEVIATIONS.4.3.1 General. This standard only covers screw threadswhich are intended to assemble without interference. Theminimum clearance between mating threads is assured byapplying the fundamental deviation to both the internaland external threads. The fundamental deviations aredesignated by upper case letters for internal threads andlower case letters for external threads, and positionedwith respect to basic size as shown in Fig. 4.1.4.3.2 Internal threads. The system provides twofundamental deviations for internal threads designated G

and H. Values for the fundamental deviations are givenin Table 4.1. The deviations are applicable to the pitchdiameter and minor diameter, and should bealgebraically added to the basic pitch diameter or basicminor diameter as relevant.4.3.3 External threads. The system provides fourfundamental deviations for external threads designatede, f, g and h. Values for the fundamental deviations aregiven in Table 4.1. The deviations are applicable to thepitch diameter and major diameter, and should bealgebraically added to the basic pitch diameter or basicmajor diameter as relevant.4.4 TOLERANCE GRADES.4.4.1 General. The ISO tolerance system for metricthreads provides the following tolerance grades:(a) Internal threads.

Parameter Tolerance gradePitch diameter 4, 5, 6, 7, 8Minor diameter 4, 5, 6, 7, 8

(b) External threads.Parameter Tolerance gradeMajor diameter 4, 6, 8Pitch diameter 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9

NOTES:1. For information on the tolerances for the internal thread major

diameter and external thread minor diameter, seeClauses 4.4.4.1 and 4.4.4.2.

2. The formulas for deriving the values of the tolerance grades aregiven in Appendix A.

3. The tolerance is algebraically added to the fundamentaldeviation to form a tolerance class. For further information ontolerance classes for internal and external threads, seeClause 4.5.

4.4.2 Pitch diameter tolerances. The pitch diametertolerances for all standard pitches of internal threads,tolerance grades 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8, for diameters from1 mm to 355 mm inclusive, are given in Table 4.2.The pitch diameter tolerances for all standard pitches ofexternal threads, tolerance grades 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9,for diameters from 1 mm to 355 mm inclusive, aregiven in Table 4.3.For data on the calculation of tolerance grades for bothinternal and external threads, see Appendices A and B.

4.4.3 Crest diameter tolerances.4.4.3.1 Internal threads. The minor diameter tolerancesfor all standard pitches, tolerance grades 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8,are given in Table 4.4.4.4.3.2 External threads. The major diameter tolerancesfor all standard pitches, tolerance grades 4, 6 and 8, aregiven in Table 4.5.4.4.4 Root diameter tolerances.4.4.4.1 Internal threads. As indicated in Clause 2.6.1,no specific tolerances are given for the major diameter ofinternal threads. This parameter is considered acceptable,provided that no portion of the root curvature transgressesthe basic profile. For convenience the minimum majordiameter, which equals the basic major diameter, is givenin the tabulated values of screw thread limits (seeTable 5.1).4.4.4.2 External threads. As indicated in Clause 2.6.2,no specific tolerances are given for the minor diameter ofexternal threads. This parameter is considered acceptable,provided that the root curvature is in agreement withClause 2.6.2 and the minimum minor diameter is not lessthan that specified for the appropriate tolerance class inTable 5.1 (for further information see Appendix A,Paragraph A6.1).4.5 TOLERANCE CLASSES.4.5.1 General. The method of defining a tolerance classfor ISO metric screw threads comprises two elements,and consists of a number describing the selected tolerancegrade, followed by an upper or lower case letterdescribing the selected fundamental deviation e.g.External threads : 6g 6hInternal threads : 6H 6G

NOTES:1. For external threads it may sometimes be necessary to apply a

different tolerance class to the pitch diameter than that chosen forthe major diameter. In this case the pitch diameter tolerance classshall precede the major diameter tolerance class in thedesignation, e.g. 5g/6g (see Section 6).

2. The tolerance class system for metric screw threads as given inthis standard is in no way related to the general system for limitsand fits as given in AS 1654.

4.5.2 Disposition of tolerance classes. The toleranceclasses are disposed about the basic pitch and majordiameter for external threads and the basic pitch andminor diameter for internal threads as shown in Fig. 4.2.Fig. 4.2 illustrates the disposition of the various toleranceclasses relative to the basic pitch diameter but the sameprinciples apply to the other basic diameters previouslynoted.4.5.3 Selection of tolerance classes.4.5.3.1 General. The tolerance classes for the pitch andcrest diameters shall be selected in accordance withClauses 4.5.3.2 to 4.5.3.4, bearing in mind the intendedapplication of the screw threads.4.5.3.2 Length of axial thread engagement. The lengthof thread engagement is classified into three groups,short, normal or long in accordance with Table 4.6. If theactual length of thread engagement is unknown (as in themanufacturing of standard bolts), the normal length ofengagement is recommended.4.5.3.3 Preferred tolerance classes. The toleranceclasses shall be selected from those given in Tables 4.7and 4.8 in order to minimize the number of tools andgauges required to produce and inspect the screw threads.

To further assist in the correct selection of toleranceclasses, the tolerance classes have been grouped intotolerance qualities as shown in Tables 4.7 and 4.8.The tolerance quality Fine is intended for precisionthreads where little variation of the character of fitbetween external and internal threads is required.The tolerance quality Medium is intended for generalapplications.The tolerance quality Coarse is intended for caseswhere manufacturing difficulties may arise, for examplethreading hot rolled bars or tapping long blind holes.The tolerance classes shown in Tables 4.7 and 4.8should be selected as follows:Tolerance classes within frames standard bolt andnut threads.Tolerance classes marked thus* first choice.Tolerances classes marked thus** second choice.Tolerance classes marked thus*** third choice.

NOTES:1. Third choice tolerance classes should be avoided wherever

possible.2. Any of the recommended tolerance classes for internal threads

may be combined with any of the recommended toleranceclasses for external threads, except thread sizes 1.4 mm andsmaller, where the combination 5H/6h or tighter is to be used.For sizes greater than 1.4 mm, in order to provide sufficientradial engagement, the finished components should preferablyform the fits H/g, H/h or G/h.

4.5.3.4 Recommended assembly combinations .Although there is no direction or guidance given byISO for the combination of thread classes between anexternal and an internal thread, the general practice isto select similar tolerance classes for matingcomponents. The following combinations arerecommended.(a) Commercial quality fasteners 6H nut with 8g

bolt.(b) Precision quality fasteners 6H nut with 6g bolt.(c) Close fit connections 5H internal with 4h

external.(d) Medium fit connections 6H internal with 6g

external.(e) Free fit connections 6G internal with 6e

external.4.6 DEVIATIONS FOR SCREW THREADS. Theupper and lower deviations for the tolerance classesgiven in Tables 4.7 and 4.8 for diameters from 1 mmto 300 mm inclusive and pitches from 0.2 mm to 6 mminclusive are given in Table 4.9. These deviationsshould be algebraically added to the basic major, pitchor minor diameter as relevant.4.7 COATED THREADS. The tolerances anddeviations given in Clause 4.4 apply to the screwthreads before coating, unless otherwise stated. Aftercoating the maximum material limits of coated screwthreads, except hot-dip galvanized threads*, shall not atany point exceed the maximum material limits given fortolerance position H or h, i.e. the basic size.

NOTE: Fundamental deviations e and f are principally intendedfor preplate screw thread dimensions. For further information, seeAS 1897.

* For hot dip galvanized threads, see AS 1214.
