Its deffo not Metric.....outside europe...no bugger uses it

I would say UNC is a safe bet as they were made in the US by US engineers.

I ain't the best though.

And the bonus is you get some fresh stem bolts out of that 6 pack too. Fits most USA made OS stems, don't force the friggers though.

HUTCHMAN · « **Reply #19 on:** May 20, 2010, 07:27 PM »

just to conform,i got my tap from Snap On today,i can confirm it is 5/16 unc. wound straight in. Not a bad price, £5.52.
