What is the thread pitch of the radial pin Dale Perry uses?
Where can I purchase a tap to match?
 
Sport: you do realize that almost all threads for cue pins are special to our industry, and cannot be found in any tool supplier, they are custom made. The only common thread is the 5/16 X 18 which you do not need a tap for as we buy inserts already tapped out. That is why the taps are expensive, very limited production runs made.

5/16 x 14 can be fund off the shelf. I have bought them for like $8.00. Although special ones with long shanks are usually made up special. I have also seen 3/8 x 10 in some old catalogs. I think they were originally used in furniture making.
