A 9 16 12 screw which is comparable in diameter and is also coarse has its threads spaced 0 083 inches which are farther apart so there will be fewer threads per unit of measure we used an inch in the table above.
Screws larger than 10 are listed as fractions of an inch.
Nominal screw sizes m5 and larger have six drilled holes spaced 60 degrees apart unless the purchaser specifies two drilled holes.
Coarse pitch threads are preferred and should be used whenever possible as stated in asme b1 13m.
The threads of an m14 2 0 screw which is coarse are spaced 0 079 inches 2 0 mm.
Metric threads use m to denote the measurement in millimeters.

The following table of thread sizes for coarse and fine pitch thread was created using the standard sizes from asme b1 13m.
The positioning of holes on opposite sides of the socket should be such that the hole alignment check plug will pass completely through the head without any deflection.
