Does anybody know where to find the tap for a #8 Bock feed? Style 380? I have no idea what the thread sizes are yet. Assuming I can find out from their website. Thanks!

The thread size on a Bock 380 housing is 10 x 0.5 so you should be able to find a tap for that quite easily.

I hope that helps
 
Thank you Phil. This is part of an email reply I received from Sylvia Steck at Peter-Bock.com :

Dear Chuck,

Thank you very much for inquiry.

Enclosed please find the nib assembly drawing of nib type 380 for your information.
(Triple system means: nib assembled with inkfeeder and housing.)

The connecting thread of all sections is: "M8,5x1" like you can see on our website.

Unfortunately, we don't sell small nib quantities and our minimum order value is 1,500.00 EUR net.
 
I am a little confused. My understanding is the the 8.5 x 1 is the thread on the SECTIONS which Bock make for their nibs and feeds. This is not the thread on the feed "housing". Or am I muddying the waters?
I can't find anything on the 380 other than the feed being 8.00mm diameter.
 
Thanks Ed. Everything is on hold for a few days while my customer considers....something :rolleyes::confused:

I will likely buy one to add to the arsenal. :wink:

It's a Jowo #8 that I have.
 
Sorry to argue the point, but the 380 housing is definitely 10 x 0.5 as per my original post above. I'm not sure what Bock themselves may be referring to but if you invest in an M8 tap I'm afraid you're going to be upset and disappointed.
