Tapping
Eldar,
I tap an ISO thread, but the Pitch and drill size are expressed in inches.
The list box is unreadable.
What's the meaning of Thread percentage?

Hi,
Thank you for the purchase!
Just click on the in/mm label to change the unit type of the corresponding field.
The Table color issue has been fixed in the latest update v1.537
I am going to combine most of your reports into one article, so our back and forward does not take up 2 pages of this forum:)
Best regards!

Hi Eldar,
What is that percentage?
And indeed, the color issue is fixed.
Thanks,
Serge

That is theoretical thread engagement percentage for the given tap hole size.
I can not give you exact definiton. But basically that is the amount of overlap between the threads of the ideal screw and the threads of the tapped hole with 100% being impossibly tight and 0% being so loose, the screw just falls through:)
Look up online to get a better definition.
