Thread run-outs and thread undercuts for
ISO metric threads as in DIN 13-1
Translation by DIN-Sprachendienst.

Supersedes
December 1983 edition.
Foreword
This standard has been prepared by Technical Committee Fachgrundnormen of the Normenausschuss
Mechanische Verbindungselemente (Fasteners Standards Committee).
It is based on International Standards ISO 3508 : 1976 and ISO 4755 : 1983. As a departure from ISO 4755,
which specifies only one type of thread undercut with g
2 max
= 3 P, this standard specifies two types, i.e. type
A with g
2 max
= 3,5 P (normal design) and type B with g
2 max
= 2,5 P (short design). Type B thread undercuts
are intended for use on a case-by-case basis, where required for technical reasons; the use of special tools
is necessary here.
It should be noted that ISO 3508 and ISO 4755 do not contain specifications for thread run-outs and thread
undercuts for internal threads.
Amendments
This standard differs from the December 1983 edition in that it has been editorially revised.
Previous editions
DIN 2352: 1924-11; DIN LON 369-1 = DIN 30140-1:1936-12; DIN 76-1: 1924-09, 1943-04, 1953-11,
1965-09, 1967-06, 1975-09, 1983-12.
All dimensions are in millimetres.
1 Scope
This standard specifies dimensions for thread run-outs and thread undercuts for bolts, screws and similar
components with external or internal ISO metric (coarse or fine pitch) thread as in DIN 13-1 and DIN ISO 261.
2 Normative references
This standard incorporates, by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications. These
normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text, and the titles of the publications are
listed below. For dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of these publications
apply to this standard only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision. For undated references, the
latest edition of the publication referred to applies.

In the case of fine pitch threads, the dimensions of thread run-outs and thread undercuts shall be selected as
a function of the pitch.
NOTE 1: The dimensions of thread run-outs and thread undercuts for pipe threads are specified in DIN 76-2,
and those for trapezoidal threads, buttress threads, knuckle threads and other coarse pitch threads are
specified in DIN 76-3.
NOTE 2: For other types of screw thread (e.g. UNF threads), it is recommended that the relationships between
thread run-outs (x or e values) and the pitch be used by analogy.
