The part 2 of this norm gives guide values for hole diameters for thread rolling screws DIN 7500-1 and DIN 267-30. The hole diameters are only guide values because they are assigned to different Materials and lenghts of engagement. Bigger hole diameters can be required, for example for special procedures. This norm doesn''t apply to holes with special forms, for example triangular and octagonal holes.
