Berea small nib thread size?

[chriselle]

Does anyone know the specs for the threading on the Berea small nibs? Isn't the El Grand nib a 10x1 thread?

I'm still on the fence about joining the tap and die group buy until I get my head wraped around all this.

Thanks,

Chris

If they are the same as the CSUSA Americana and Jr Gentleman front sections, it will thread into a close tolerance 3/8"-24. It's a bit loose, but tightens up okay. The OD on the threads is actually 21/64", or about 8.3mm. A completely non-standard tap size if I've ever seen one.
