What tap drill do I need for #2-64 UNF?

For a #2-64 UNF thread, drill the hole with a #50 tap drill (1.78 mm) before tapping. That produces roughly 79% thread engagement, the usual target for a strong, tappable hole. The mating bolt has a major diameter of 2.184 mm and a pitch of 0.397 mm (64 TPI).

To pass a #2-64 UNF bolt through a part rather than thread it, use a clearance hole: Close #38 · Normal #32 · Loose #25 — nominal + 1/64" / 1/32" / 1/16" to the nearest standard drill (common shop practice)..

All values are generated from the standard thread formulas (ISO 68-1 / ASME B1.1) and published standard tables — not hand-entered. See the full reference.
