| Thread pitch for volcano buttons? |
| (1/1) |
| Dervacumen:
I don't have any so I can't measure the threads. I think I located some used switches that are similar to or identical to these but at a better price. Before I buy them I want to check to see if the threads are the same. Thanks. |

I have no way to measure the pitch but the diameter of the thread is 11.75 mm (.4625"). The nuts that come with the switches requre a 5/8" wrench. The lens has a diameter of 8.75 mm (.3445"). Hope that helps. I recently picked up some used switches at a surplus store that I was able to convert. There's more info on my site. |

rdagger, that info is what I needed. Turns out that the lens diameter is too small for what we need. Thanks for the info! Damn it. Back to square one. |
