Sedona Thread Sizes?
G'day Folks,
I've been messing about in the garage trying to do things above my skill level !!
I've managed to make a couple of closed end pens using the brass tubes and now want to try making them without the tubes BUT I can't figure out the thread size and pitch to be able to connect the kit section to the body.
Does anybody know what the thread is ? I want to use the bits from kits I have at present. They are a Sedona and some Tycoons, I suspect they might be imperial thread sizes, which is a bugga cos I only have metric !
Thanks in advance,
Cam

The Berea Baron/Sedona section to body thread size is 8.4x1, also used on the Sierra transmission, available here

Not sure what the Timberbits Baron/Sedona uses.

GPW Baron/Sedona components differ in outer dia to Timberbits from memory so thread may also.
Something is different anyway - pretty sure it outer dia.

Thanks for the help fella's, much appreciated !
i'll take them into work and see if anybody from the engineering team can identify them or teach me to use a thread gauge properly !!!

I'm looking very closely at a baron from Timberbits, it has three parrallel threads - three thread starts. So the actual pitch is three times the measured pitch.
I don't know if I have explained this well - maybe someone with a bit more engineering knowledge can help.____________________________________________________________

Yes, commonly known as triple start threads. But this is on the cap to barrel thread, the OP was asking about the section to barrel thread, which is a single start thread, M8.4x1.
I have looked at my records for the various pen kit dimensions and the Timberbits Baron/Sedona and the Berea (from which it was copied) are the same.
The Dayacom (the one GPW sells) is different and larger as previously pointed out.
I'll have a look what the triple start thread is on the Berea/Timberbits version.
