M2.2 × 0.45 Thread Dimensions

M2.2 x 0.45 is a coarse ISO Metric thread. Pitch is 0.45 mm, equivalent to 56.44 threads per inch. The recommended tap drill leaves roughly 75% thread engagement.

How these values are derived

computed from the basic profile

These figures follow the ISO 68-1 basic profile of ISO 261. A 60° basic profile uses a fundamental triangle height H = 0.866025 × P, with external minor diameter d₃ = d − 1.226869 × P and internal minor diameter D₁ = d − 1.082532 × P; the two differ because the external root is rounded while the internal crest is truncated. A 55° Whitworth profile uses H = 0.960491 × P and a thread height of 0.640327 × P. The recommended tap drill is given as nominal diameter minus pitch, which approximates 75% thread engagement — adjust it for tough materials or deep holes.
