M11 ×0.75 Thread Overview
M11 × 0.75 is an ISO metric fine thread with a nominal diameter of 11 mm and a thread pitch of 0.75 mm. The smaller pitch provides finer adjustment and allows more threads to engage over a given threaded length.
Compared with the standard M11 × 1.5 coarse thread, M11 × 0.75 is generally used where positioning accuracy, adjustment resolution, or increased thread engagement is important.

Understanding the M11 × 0.75 Designation
The designation identifies the basic geometry of the thread:
- M= ISO Metric Thread
- 11= Nominal major diameter of 11 mm
- 75= Thread pitch of 0.75 mm
The pitch should be stated when specifying the thread because the same nominal M11 diameter can be manufactured with different pitches. Writing M11 × 0.75 removes ambiguity during design, machining, and purchasing.
Characteristics of M11 × 0.75 Fine Thread
- Smaller pitch than the standard M11× 1.5 coarse thread.
- Finer axial adjustment and greater adjustment resolution.
- More engaged threads over the same threaded length.
- Useful where available axial space is limited.
- Suitable for precision mechanical assemblies and fine adjustment mechanisms.
M11 × 0.75 Thread Tolerance Classes
Thread tolerance classes define the permissible dimensional variation and determine how mating external and internal threads fit together. ISO metric fine threads, a complete tolerance designation combines a numerical tolerance grade with a tolerance-position letter.
Example: M11 × 0.75 – 6g
- 6 — Tolerance grade.
- g — Tolerance position for an external thread.
The corresponding internal thread is typically specified as M11 × 0.75 – 6H.
| Thread Type | Common Class | Typical Application |
| External Thread | 6g | General-purpose screws and bolts |
| Internal Thread | 6H | General-purpose tapped holes and nuts |
| External Thread | 4g6g | Precision mechanical assemblies |
| External Thread | 8g | Loose fit or coated fasteners |
| Internal Thread | 5H | Higher positioning accuracy |
M11 × 0.75 vs. M11 × 1.5
M11× 0.75 and M11 × 1.5 have the same nominal major diameter, but their pitches are different. The choice depends on the required assembly characteristics and application.
| Feature | M11 × 0.75 | M11 × 1.5 |
| Thread Type | Fine thread | Standard coarse thread |
| Pitch | 0.75 mm | 1.5 mm |
| Adjustment | More precise | Faster |
| Thread Engagement | More threads per length | Fewer threads per length |
| Assembly | Suitable for precision adjustment | Generally easier and faster |
| Typical Use | Precision assemblies and fine adjustment | General-purpose fastening |
Typical Applications
M11 × 0.75 fine threads can be used in applications where controlled adjustment, positioning accuracy, or compact threaded engagement is required. Examples include:
Optical instruments
- Precision measuring devices
- Fine adjustment mechanisms
- Precision mechanical assemblies
By comparison, M11 × 1.5 coarse threads are commonly selected for general-purpose fastening applications, including industrial equipment, enclosures, and control panels.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1. Is M11 × 0.75 a standard thread?
Yes. M11 × 0.75 is an ISO metric fine-thread configuration.
Q2. Is M11 × 0.75 the same as M10?
Not exactly.
M11 identifies the nominal diameter, while 0.75 specifies the pitch. The pitch should be included when a fine thread is required.
Q3. What is the difference between M11 × 0.75 and M11 × 1.5?
The difference is thread pitch.
Q4.What does 6g mean for an M11 × 0.75 thread?
6g is a commonly used tolerance designation for an external ISO metric thread, combining tolerance grade 6 with tolerance position g.
Q5.What is the typical internal-thread designation?
The corresponding internal thread is typically specified as M11 × 0.75 – 6H.
