IS 3/8-8 RADIAL THE SAME RADIAL USED ON MOST SHAFTS?

[bbb]

there was a thread in the main forum about rhino carbon fiber shafts
when i went to their website i saw the pic below
is that radial the "standard " radial you would find on most cues made in the usa?
and therefore fit on a rial pin but by a usa cuemaker?
i am not a cuemaker but dont recall seeing radial called 3/8-8

Reach out to the seller, but since it says Radial, I would imagine it fits most Radial pins.

3/8-8 is not the thread pitch of the US radial pin. Close, but not exact.

Hi Larry
I communicated with Konllen c/f shafts on this issue and I think this one is the same misinformation in that they think the Radial is 3/8x8 thread.
IT IS NOT.
I would say this is the same.
Radial is Radial but there is a 3/8x8 ball screw.
Konllen understood, whether they change thier add or not, I have no idea.

Can't fix stupid Larry.
Confusion does not promote sales.

3/8 x 8 Ball Screw is not Radial. And Radial is not 3/8 x 8 thread.

Radial is trademarked, and the TPI is somewhere around 7.6.
Close enough for Konllen, I guess.
