|  metric thread pitch
Hey guys, I googled this earlier but didn't find what I needed. Can anybody tell me what the standard equivalent of an M2 screw/bolt would be? Thanks, Tom Last edited by metomwhou; 03-05-2008 at 04:12 PM. |

Do you mean what standard screw would thread into a M2 threaded hole? If so, a 2mm x .4 thread has a thread pitch of 63.5 threads per inch and a diameter of about .0787". A #1-64 standard screw has a thread pitch of 64 threads per inch and a diameter of 0.073". I've never tried it but it might work. Last edited by Grizzly4x4; 03-05-2008 at 04:43 PM. |

Nah, I'm just looking to see which ones are roughly the same size since standards seem to be cheaper than metric stuff. Although at $2.96 for 100 I guess I should STFU and just get the m2's!!

 Tightwad. I use 2-56 and 2mm, they are pretty close with the 2-56 being just a little bigger, about 0.086" diameter. | |
