Metric thread drill and tap chart with detailed information on tap drill sizes and thread sizes.. A rule of thumb is that the right tap drill is around 85% for coarse threads and 90% for fine threads which feature a higher number of threads per axial distance. In our case, the correct tap drill would be the closest to 3.4 mm from below, and that is the 3.3 mm or .13-inch tap drill.
