Metric thread pitch is measured directly from crest to crest of the thread form.
For example the distance from crest to crest of a M8 x 1.25 MM thread would be 1.25 MM.
Another way to measure it would be linear travel per rotation, in which case a M8 x 1.25 MM thread would travel 1.25 MM each rotation.
Thread pitch defines the distance between adjacent threads on the screw's thread profile. For example, a screw with a 1/4-20 thread designation in the United States has a 20 threads per inch pitch, meaning there are 20 complete threads within a 1-inch length of the screw. Similarly, a metric screw with an M8x1.25 thread designation has a pitch of 1.25 millimeters, indicating that there is 1.25 millimeters of linear distance between each thread. The thread pitch is a critical parameter when selecting screws and nuts because it determines how fine or coarse the threading is and plays a significant role in the mechanical advantage, torque transmission, and application suitability of threaded fasteners.
6mm bolt with 1.0 thread pitch
This is a tool that is used to measure the pitch diameter of a screw. This tool looks like a standard micrometer except that the anvils are specially configured to reach into the screw thread groove and touch the pitch diameter of the screw thread. The screw thread micrometer does not measure any other aspect of the screw thread. It does not measure the: pitch; threads-per-inch; major diameter; minor diameter; flank angles; lead; helix angle.
13 threads per inch pitch is 1/13 = 0.077 inch ( pitch is distance between threads)
The pitch of a screw thread is a measure of how closely the threads are spaced. It can be expressed as the number of threads per unit length (32 threads per inch, for example) or as the distance between two threads ( such as .8 mm).
SAE is American or standard thread and metric is everything else. The size or diameter is different and the pitch of the thread is different also.
Standard thread are meassured in number of threads per inch (example 1/4-20) 1/4 inch dia. bolt with 20 threads per inch. Metric threads are measured in mm between thread (M8 x 1.5), an 8 MM bolt with a thread pitch of 1.5MM between threads.

Thread series cover designations of diameter/pitchcombinations that are measured by the number of threads per inch (TPI) applied to a single diameter
the pitch of a coil referes to the angle or degree at which the coils slant. in example you will have a different pitch in the thread of metric and imperial screws. also rough and fine thread. hope that helped
Something measured in a metric centimeter is 1/100 of a metric meter.
Metric size #6 shank, 32 is thread pitch per inch. The bigger the no. the bigger the screw size.
Not all spark plugs are metric Normally European cars will have metric spark plugs, but American cars might have an NPT or a UNC thread form, and old British cars might have BSW, BSF or BSP threads. I guess most plugs are metric though as the famous inventor of spark plugs was a Frenchman named champion. you will have heard of champion spark plugs right. the only way to be sure if the thread is metric or not is to measure it standard metric plugs come in the following sizes m10 x 1mm pitch m12 x 1.25mm pitch m14 x 1.25mm pitch m18 x 1.50m pitch good luck
Take the bolt to a machine shop and they can tell you . if you dont have it most metric auto bolts have a 125 thread pitch but i dont know the diameter.
you can identify the slight different between an imperial bolt and a metric bolt by looking how fine their thread pitch looks like or feels like
A 44 MAG IS MEASURED IN thousandths OF AN INCH, .44 IS THE ACTUAL BORE, NOT METRIC
