The head to lever is a pipe thread... 1/8 NPT with 27 tpi. The tip to head is a non standard size. I think it is 3/8 with 30 tpi, but I've never found a ready made die to match it.

Hi Bill
Thanks for that info!! thumb

What really stumped me yesterday is that I read on a site about Schaff hammers that the head and tip thread is the same. I didn't believe that and that is how this came about.

Best regards
Bernt
