Re: need help to buy piece to make Thread plug 049 Babe bee
In my notes I have the thread size written down from somewhere:
17/32” - 40tpi
Hard to find a die for that size... I think Matt at Ex Model Engines had some taps special made to cut a female thread of that size. The same thread is used in the cylinder base and also Tee Dee/Medallion back plates. Backplates and glowheads are produced currently, but they probably make the threads on a lathe.
Not sure a die for that thread exists as a product

It seems that commercially it does not exist, perhaps I should have it manufactured or try to do it with my CNC lathe

I already resolved it. Command to manufacture the die in steel. It is a special non-commercial measure. It has a cost of u$S70. But I already have it for my production of spark plug adapters 049. Thanks all
