Thread pitch on ejector rod ??

[notsofast]

I’d like to know the ejector rod thread pitch on a model 13-2.
Also where can I get a “reverse” thread tap and die?
Thanks

.215" diam. x 48 pitch.

Don't know where, but I'd start with Brownells, Mideway, and lastly....Google.

You could likely buy new parts cheaper than tap & die, if at all.

Sounds like a #12-48 machine screw size. (.216" diam.) Very fine thread, normally #12-24.

Hmmm..... I've had Ejector Rods apart umpteen times but I have never measured the thread size. I do have the proper Starrett Gauge to measure and next time I disassemble one I WILL measure them and post.
