russ78 Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 i second this post in exactly the same boatthink its 6mm Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WallaceGlanza Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 (edited) Even if it's mate it may not be regular pitch as the Japs use fine pitch threads, I can take one with me to work tomorrow and get a set of thread gauges on to check for you.EDIT: mate was meant to be "mate" stupid text speak auto changer. EDIT EDIT: M*8!!!! Edited July 24, 2012 by WallaceGlanza Quote Link to post Share on other sites
