Custom Thread Percentage
(NOT AVAILABLE ON MODEL 4086)
The
Machinist Calc
and
Machinist Calc Pro
use a default
Thread Grip Percentage of 75% when calculating Tap Drill
sizes. With the custom Percentage Thread function on the
Machinist Calc Pro
, you can enter a different value to calculate
Tap Drill sizes.
Calculate the Tap Drill Size for a 1/4 Inch, 26 TPI screw, then
change the Thread Grip Percentage to 50% and calculate the
new Tap Drill Size.
