What Does M8 20 Mean

Here’s what the description means… M = Metric thread designation. 8 = Nominal diameter, in millimeters. 1.0 = Pitch (distance from thread to thread), in millimeters. 20 = Length, in millimeters (see below)

What does M8 1.25 mean?

8 means 8mm nominal diameter (the thread will be less than 8 mm at the widest point) X 1.25 means 1.25 mm per thread (thanks the standard coarse pitch for this thread)

Are #14 and 1/4 screws the same?

#14 is close to, but not exactly the same as, 1/4-inch.) The major diameter in Unified threads = 0.060″ + 0.013″ x (numbered diameter). So #2 has a major diameter of 0.086″. … We see that #14 would be 0.242 inches and #1/4 is 0.250 inches.
