I am designing a custom metric buttress thread with a pitch of 1,6 and a dia. of 12mm, with 4 leads. I have found formulas for calculating the necessary parameters for a 7deg/45deg. and a 0deg/50deg. buttress thread. But I am designing a 3deg./60deg. buttress. Is there a way I can calculate the necessary design parameters.?

Thank you
Jeff
