    Coarse threads:

    - Coarse threads are stronger than fine threads. These threads offer less resistance and have less possibility of thread shearing and crushing.

    - Coarse threads apply less resistance during loosening or unscrewing. So these threads can be used where frequent assembly or disassembly of connecting parts is needed.

    - These threads are designated as 'M' which is followed by nominal diameter. For eg: M30

    - The approximate nominal diameter for coarse threads is given as d = 1.19 dc, here dc is the core diameter. This relation is used if dimensions of these threads are not specified.
