Where to get blueprints for standardized screws, bolts and alu profiles?

Hey everyone

Rhino doesn’t come with an automatic thread-adding function so I have to model screws myself with a spiral right?

My question is: Where do I get the actual dimensions of the threads (inner diameter and outer diameter)? Do you guys know any resources where to get these standardized screws, bolts or aluminium profile blueprints or technical drawings?

I know this isn’t a Rhino specific question - I hope its ok to ask these kind of question in this forum :slight_smile:

Thank you for helping :slight_smile:

McMaster-Carr has models and drawings.
Find your fastener and click on the CAD link.

Thank you for the link!

Unfortunately all the dimensions are in inch…
I am used to the metric system… Is there a option to see the metric numbers right away without calculating every time? I cant find such otption :frowning:

EDIT → Found the option on the left side in the filter window!
