    3.75 is 2.5 * 1.5mm and the 1mm is for good measure (actually, it is part of the formula posted above)

    Please remember that you have to consider the type of thread tapping method you are using. 2.5 * pitch is for roll formed threads.

    It depends on what type of tap is being used. First of all you need a counterbore or pre-drill for the unthreaded part of that particular screw. This requires a separate feature created before the threaded hole so the cosmetic thread has a good start surface.

    This is a pretty nice guide for the pilot drill depth courtesy of:

    Hi

    Still I have a doubt


    The M15x1.5 bolt penetrated into hole to 30 mm . The overall profile length is 30.5 mm.


    It become 30-50mm =20 mm remaining length


    So, out of the remaining above value what will be the hole thread length( blind hole) or clearance ? How to calculate ?

    It is an metric thread
