Sounds stupid but I didn't want to booger up threads
I thought it was a 3/8course thread. But it just does not start. It don't look to be fine thread
I'm referring to the bolt that holds the handle to the pump mechanism on a fry 117
Anyone know with out a doubt what size and thread count it is?

If you have a tap and die set it may have a thread pitch gauge in it. All my sets do, standard and metric.

3/8” 18 threads per inch. Coarse threads for a 5 gallon Fry 17. Just put a fresh bolt in to make sure !

Got that all took care of. I'm gonna make something close to this but out of brass. And most likely have a flange t9 take care of a washer

Ralph, attached is a photo of an original handle, bolt, and special washer ((on the left). The handle, bolt, and washer on the right are my repros that I no longer make.
