General Notes :
B = full nut end thread length
Bm = tap end thread length (full threads)
LT = overall length (nominal length)
S = Standoff (when installed) = LT - BM
U = length to first full form thread.

Notes :

  • UNC Threads are standards for low strength materials, but UNF threads are usually available on special order.
