    MP Moulds Screw Threads

    I need to know the size and thread pitch of the screws used my Mihec in his moulds; namely the sprue plate screw and the set screw for it. Can anyone help me out?

    Thanks,
    James

    E-mail Miha--he may take a while to get back to you, but he would know. I am sure they are metric, he being from Europe and all, but my knowledge stops there.

    Really only one common thread these diameters in metric fasteners, 1.0 pitch for the 6mm and 0.7 pitch for the 4mm. If you want I can check mine tomorrow at work, no thread pitch gage here.

    Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don't you dig how beautiful it is out here? Why don't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change? (Sgt. Oddball, KELLY'S HEROES)

    Maybe in the US, but the rest of the world say's different.
