Hole Size Information
EXAMPLE – The shaded area indicates that an M5 – 0.8 screw size in a 4.58 hole size provides 80% thread engagement.
Because the above values are based on a linear relation between hole size and percentage thread engagement, the hole data becomes less accurate for
engagements less than 70%.
Note also, these holes are based on the U.S. basic thread depth of .6495 times the pitch and are calculated using nominal screw diameters.
Hole = D - (0.6495 x P x %), where D = nominal screw diameter.
(1) Pilot holes listed under 90% & 85% (Thread Percent) also recommended for single punch extruded holes. - See Page 11
For Pilot Hole Tolerance in terms of thread percentage, we suggest +5% to -10% of the nominal, percent thread value.
EXAMPLE; If 80% is the percent thread for the nominal hole, the minimum hole would yield 85% thread and
the maximum hole would yield 70% thread.

NOTES:
• Torque values for metric sizes in
Newton-meters
• Torque values for inch sizes in pound-inches
• Plate dimensions for metric sizes in
millimeters and for inch sizes in inches
• Torque values were developed using
hex washer head screws, zinc plated
plus lubricity wax, driven at low speed
under laboratory-controlled conditions.
• Values shown represent the above
conditions only and should not be used
in lieu of proper application testing. The
data is presented to provide the user
with an estimate of what could be
achieved in an actual application having
a thicker or thinner nut member, harder
or softer material, different hole or
fastener all contribute to variations in
torque performance.
• Recommended tightening torque is
intended to induce approximately
30,000 to 50,000 psi clamping force.
• Prevailing first removal torque, the
torque necessary to remove the screw
after the head has been un-seated, is an

which is an indication of resistance to
loosening under vibration, even without

PLASTITE 48-2 Screws ®
®
PLASTITE 48-2 TRILOBULAR™ thread-rolling
screws have twin lead threads to provide faster,
more efficient insertion. The sharp 48° thread
profile increases holding strength and reduces
material displacement and boss bursting
tendencies. Drive and strip torques are higher,
making drive tool adjustments simple. NOTE:
Component and boss design should allow for
much faster engagement than with single lead
screws.
