Screw & Bolt Thread Size Identifier

Search a limited reference table of common UNC/UNF and selected ISO metric M-thread sizes, or compare measured diameter and pitch. Results are identification leads—not standards inspection or compatibility determinations.
Scope: selected common UNC/UNF entries only; no UNEF, UNS, 8UN, pipe, or specialty threads.

Important limitation. NumPad compares user measurements with a limited nominal reference table. It does not inspect a thread, establish conformance to ASME or ISO dimensional tolerances, guarantee a mating fit, or determine material grade, torque, strength, suitability, or safe working load.
Source & methodology

Unified scope. Designations are checked against ASME B1.1-2024 terminology and the manufacturer tables from Portland Bolt and Bolt Depot. NumPad reproduces only a limited nominal diameter–TPI directory, not ASME dimensional limits, allowances, or tolerances.

Metric scope. Terminology and basic-dimension scope follow ISO 261:1998, ISO 724:2023, and ISO 262:2023. The displayed pitch set is intentionally limited and is cross-checked with Bolt Depot’s manufacturer reference table.

Conversion. Diameter conversion uses 1 inch = 25.4 millimeters exactly, as documented by NIST. Displayed conversions are rounded to four decimal places; calculations use the unrounded conversion.

Matching method. Exact-table status uses a narrow input-rounding window: Unified diameter max(0.001 in, 0.2%) with ±0.1 TPI; metric diameter max(0.05 mm, 0.2%) with ±0.02 mm pitch. Near-match screening uses max(0.005 in, 1.5%) and ±0.6 TPI, or max(0.15 mm, 1.5%) and ±0.08 mm pitch. These are NumPad screening windows—not ASME/ISO manufacturing tolerances or inspection acceptance criteria.

Limitations. Worn or damaged crests, plating/coatings, burrs, caliper angle, internal-thread measurement, short counting spans, and pitch-gauge errors can shift readings. Diameter and pitch alone may not distinguish thread form, fit class, direction, taper, or proprietary/specialty standards.

The Unified table covers selected common UNC and UNF diameter–TPI combinations from #0 through 1-1/4 inch. It does not cover UNEF, UNS, 8UN, UNJ, NPT, BSP, ACME, left-hand, self-tapping, wood-screw, or proprietary threads. The metric table covers selected ISO general-purpose M-thread coarse pitches and one selected fine pitch for some M1.6–M36 diameters; it is not the complete ISO pitch series.
