Bolt circle (PCD) calculator

Enter the bolt circle diameter (PCD), the number of holes and the angle of the first hole to get the X and Y coordinates of equally spaced holes. Useful for flanges, bolt patterns and CNC program coordinates.

⊕Hole positions

Hole-to-hole distance (chord)—mm
Angle between holes—deg
HoleAngle (deg)XY

X = Xc + (PCD/2) × cos θ  Y = Yc + (PCD/2) × sin θ
θ = start angle ± 360° × (k − 1) ÷ number of holes  chord = PCD × sin(180° ÷ number of holes)
