That pitch is standard, not fine. Local sources "might" be Caterpillar or John Deere dealers, although much of their hardware in the larger diameters is coarse. The Cap'n

Ah... Bulldoser bolts! That's what I've got for my 5 point harnesses. I went to the local guy ('Nutty Bolts' in Hesperia) and he had to special order them, but had them in two days. You may be able to get them at the local Caterpillar dealer... You know what? I may have some left, but they're 12 point bolts, not socket head cap screws. I'll go check tomorrow. Don't know what your application is or how many you need.

Oops, I misread your post. Grainger has M14x2.0x75, $13.16 for 5. They don't list a M14x1.50x75mm. Good luck in your quest!

You are wrong sir. Std pitch for a M14 is 2.0. 1.5 is a finer pitch

As of a year or so back, Mr. Metric does not do walk-ins any more! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) I'm guessing they're trying to get away from onesie-twosie stuff like we need...

I bought lifetime supplies of wave washers for CV jobs (914 and 911) from Metric Multistandard... also some funky Allen head fasteners for my 911, replacing the hex head bolts that the PO installed in a few places.

Didn't know Mr. Metric stopped counter sales (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif)
An approved government fastener house for metric screws is

Fabory USA Metric Fasteners Corp.
6095 Rickenbacker Rd.
City of Commerce, CA 90040
323-726-9944

They only sell documented rated fasteners, so no cheap knock offs. Any yes, we have tested supposed grade fasteners that have not met the ANSI standards.

Danforth (IMG:style_emoticons/default/barf.gif)
Screw and supply in Tracy, ca or Seattle 209-830-2860
They are VERY slow to process orders.

That pitch is standard, not fine. Local sources "might" be Caterpillar or John Deere dealers, although much of their hardware in the larger diameters is coarse. The Cap'n

So what does that make 1.75 and 1.25 (spark plug) threads? In the automotive world, M14x2.0 is as coarse as they come. In fact, the only use I can think of for a 2.0 is case savers of the most basic kind.

Exactly, he wanted M14 x1.5, The M14 X2.0 is the coarse thread and the 1.5 is the harder to find fine thread. Only two pitches available with metric ANSI standards, not like our Fuched up SAE stuff where you can get 10/24, 10/32,10/etc etc. Sae used to be even worse, but they have tried to narrow it down to just two threads per inch per size. Thats why you might only find 1/4-20 and 1/4-28 etc.

It's a little confusing for us, because we are so used to threads per inch is the us. Metric thread pitch is determined by:
A metric screw thread is specified by how far, in millimeters it advances in one turn of the screw

I'm 65 and have been a mechanic on many things since I was 14. I have never heard metric threads called standard and fine or coarse like sae threads. There are four different metric threads that I am aware of and only a course and fine in sae for each diameter size of sae screw or bolt. Don't walk in a fastenal store and say course metric they will think you are a farmer.

Depends on the fastenall, but usually they never have the fine pitch metric series anyway. The fine pitch metric is only used for very limited applications. And there are for sure more than 2 thread pitches per size for SAE. Being an ex machinist we saw them all. Metric only has two pitches per size though. Look at the chart for the metric stuff I posted before. And that chart does not even have the real small stuff listed.

This chart has a few more, shows the smaller (but not the smallest) and the different pitches. They don't show all the large thread sizes though. I do have a machinist handbook, i can look up what ever you need, but the handbook is almost 20 years old. They are very expensive to buy new so i make do.
