With metric threads, the 1st number is the outside diameter of the bolt, 2nd is the distance between the threads (pitch) in mm.

For imperial, the 2nd number is threads per inch (TPI).

Best bet is to get it to a local fasteners place or engineer and let them measure it up

My local place just has a charity box, sling some coppers in it and he sorts me right out
