I’m trying desperately to find a 1BA thread turnbuckle barrel to complete a restoration project.
Any pointers or surplus items appreciated!
Many thanks
Paul.

I have a couple of ex Auster turnbuckles but don't know the thread. Can you give me the diameter of the threaded part and measure it for you?

Thanks for offering to check for me, the thread measures at 1BA which I think is 5.3mm.
I’ve run a 1BA nut on to check the thread cut too which checks out.

Sorry but the one I have is 4.5mm. Best of luck. You might try Simon Westley 07752 241185. Helpful guy and has loads of bits
