Default Grip screw thread size

Hi everyone. Does anyone know what thread size was used for diamond magna grips? These particular grips are from a Model 15-2. Thanks.

I think you will find they are a 5-44 thread.

Wow, that was fast. Thank you for the quick reply. I need to chase the threads on a grip panel to try to save it.

You will have to go to an industrial supplier for a tap. #5-44 UNF is not a hardware store item. And this is the correct size.
