I never cease to be amazed at some of the insane threadforms some people
design in, I also try never to be without a supply of sensible grub
screws and their relevant taps...

Subject: [modeleng] Mystery thread
I am presently converting a 14" Rockwell wood bandsaw for metal cutting
and I need to match the thread of a grubscrew (missing) for a David
Brown reduction gearbox, which I assume was made in the UK. The screw
diameter measures .216" and the pitch is between a 24 and 28tpi but it
is neither a 24 nor 28. The .216" is dead-on for a US #12 machine screw
but it isn't that. Anyone have an idea what this thread might be?
Regards,
Harry
