Are you 100% on diameter? Which thread pitch? Fastenal does not list them. Try Grainger or MacMaster-Carr. |

A better, and likely more helpful way to describe what you need is the outside [major] diameter of the screw and the number of threads per inch on the screw. Nuts are described by the size and thread pitch [number of threads per inch] of the thread they fit.

I'll mearure the thread count tomorrow,but they said it was a 9/16th,while I was at the machinist...
Well I measured the thread count per inch,it was 20......So that tells me its not a 9/16th's than.....
I measured the outside threads on screw drive,it's more 5/8th's than 9/16th's....
Sorry,I'm not good at machinist measurements....

Sorry,I'm not good at machinist measurements.... I assume you have calipers? Post the decimal readout for the outside of the threads. No real skill required. Just do it.  The feed screw on my Frantom is 1/2"-20 which Larry prolly calls 1/2"UNF |
