Ie M10 x 1.25, 7/16unf 24tpi, etc etc

Is the first bit the size, the 2nd bit the thread pitch yeah?

Just im in need of a banjo bolt for an oil feed, know its about the size of the above two, but not quite the same thread, so need to try some similar ones...

 

Yeah that's right mate.

M10 is the size and 1.25 is the thread pitch.

 

Whats it for? if it's Jap then it wont be unf but they have plenty of pitches for M10 to choose from so it might be worth trying the other variations.

Its the banjo bolt for a GT28RS ripoff.

Standard S13 Garrett T25 thread is meant to be the UNF one, but one person claimed it was the M10 one, frankly, i dunno.

Either way, my standard oil feed banjo bolt is VERY close, so same size (or itd be miles out, surely), but the threads wrong so wont catch n screw in.

 

just wind the cunt in and be done with it


i 'think' some jap stuff is a closer thread, so your m10 by 1.25 (or would it be 1.5?) wont fit obviously

my old man has got some thread measuring thingys, if you want, and the turbo aint on the car, i can take it over and have a look?

 

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

m10 being 10mm by thread pitch 1.25. then you have old skool 7/16 which is 7/16ths of an inch by 24 tpi which is teeth per inch (as i understand it lol) im sure i'll be told if im wrong which i could be. its been a while since i done all that size stuff lol

 

Dan- its in the car down the workshop, if you can help mate, id really appreciate it!

The fastener place by work were no help, but not tried others yet

 

pmsl .... Every time someone mentions threads I automatically assume the forum threads LOL

 

seat belt mounting bolts are 7/16UNF on all cars more than a couple of years old - if that fits in the turbo, then you know what you do or don't need, or try a brake pipe banjo bolt - these are I believe M10 x 1.0.

 

has the thread got a taper? if so it maybe gas.
