You can measure that with a thing called
" Gewindelehre" available in shop for screws and nuts for about 10.- Euro
Or use a screw you be sure about the thread and hold it on the unknown screw like the picture shows.If its threads fit in like in the picture and the diameter is the same you are sure to have the same thread |
