Threading is not one of my strong points...I need to chase a metric thread on the end of a crankshaft, 1.5 pitch. I have tried to 'fumble around' finding a US tpi equivilent but can't seem to get it...can this be done on my Clausing? FWIW, I only need to chase the end, about 1/2 inch, so if it's not exact that will be fine for this application, just enough to get the nut started.
BTW no this cannot be cleaned up with a thread file or a die, it is mushroomed over and the diameter is swollen, so it needs to be cut on the lathe. Thanks
