The tap drill size for a 120-80 thread is typically 0.086 inches (or 2.18 mm). This size allows for proper engagement of the threads when tapping a hole for a 120-80 screw. It's important to ensure that the tap drill size is accurate to achieve the desired thread strength and fit. Always refer to specific tapping charts or guidelines for confirmation based on materials and applications.
For a half-inch tap (specifically a 1/2"-13 tap, which is common for coarse threads), the recommended drill bit size is typically 27/64 inches, or approximately 10.7 mm. This size provides the appropriate clearance for the tap to create threads in the material. Always consult a tap drill chart for specific applications, as fine thread taps may require different sizes.
For a 6-48 tap, a #43 drill bit is typically used. This size provides the appropriate clearance for the threads created by the tap. It's important to ensure proper sizing for effective tapping and to avoid damaging the material. Always check specific tapping guidelines for the material being worked on, as recommendations may vary slightly.

Use 7/64 as tap drill and 9/64 as clearance drill
To determine the drill size for tapped holes, you typically refer to a tap drill size chart, which provides the recommended drill bit diameter based on the size and thread pitch of the tap. The general formula used is to take the nominal screw size and subtract the thread pitch to find the appropriate drill size. For example, for a 1/4"-20 tap, you would use a 7/32" drill bit. Always ensure to consider the material being tapped, as it may affect the final drill size choice.
For a cut tap the correct drill size is a #17 drill, which has a diameter of .173 inches.

For an M12x1.75 thread, you should use a drill bit that is appropriate for the tap size. Typically, a 10.2 mm (or 0.402 inches) drill bit is recommended for this size to ensure proper threading. Always confirm the specifications for your specific application to ensure an accurate fit.
The tap drill size for a 3/8-32 STI (Screw Thread Insert) tap is typically 0.281 inch (or 9/32 inch). This size allows for the proper threads to be formed while ensuring that there is enough material for the insert to grip securely.
