Stainless might look pretty but there are many different grades just like other hardware and some is way weaker than say a grade 5 inch size bolt. Metric bolts and fasteners are manufactured in conformance with standards set by the International Organisation for Standardisation (ISO) and the German Institute for Standardisation (DIN). But if the M8 bolt had a fine pitch thread of 1mm then the diameter of the hole required for tapping would be 7mm.

Note: Only suitable for disc hubs with 9x100mm TB hub width (DT Swiss, Chosen, various other OEM models). JustAnswer is not intended or designed for EMERGENCY questions which should be directed immediately by telephone or in-person to qualified professionals. I also tried a strip cut from a broken silicon carbide sanding belt (see next pic), and a strip cut from a broken coarse grit diamond sanding belt. I have a saab 900 se turbo convertible 96 that crack so far three ignition cassette, with the obviously dissapoiment and loosing so much money, this is happening after the engine was rebuild?When it’s necessary to cut a thread then the hole size needs to be a smaller diameter to allow for the thread to be tapped.

If you have a question about the size, you can use a metric wrench (open end) to measure the width (diameter) of the threaded part.

The following table provides examples of clearance hole sizes, standard or coarse thread pitches along with fine thread pitches and their corresponding tapping hole sizes. Got it out by drilling through from the other side, and punching it out -- not as simple as that sounds.

So an M8 bolt would have a shaft diameter that’s slightly under 8mm which means that the bolt should fit through an 8mm hole. The necessary tapping hole size can be easily calculated by deducting the thread pitch from the metric bolt diameter.It is worth noting that metric bolts with a coarse thread pitch have more threads per inch (they are more closely spaced) than comparable imperial bolts. But it’s common practice to drill clearance holes that are slightly larger to allow for misalignment.
