9/16" can be 20 or 26TPI in BSC - I have several 40's era BSA's so have tripped over this in the past.

This particular thread chart is one of the few online that show both variations:

Turns out my confusion has arisen from assuming that British Standard Cycle (BSC) thread is the same as Cycle Engineers Institute (CEI)! The Die I borrowed is etched as 'Cycle' as has 26tpi, this obviously must be CEI. You're advice about 'standard' cycle is spot on, as this is 20tpi.
I'm surprised that there's nothing mentioned in my Zeus book. Fire up the Myford!!! lOl

NOT IN THE ZEUS BOOK :!: :?:
:o

Nor is it in my Presto book....

That's handy having the same system using 2 sets of tpi! 😮 :rotfl: Thanks Ray's, I'll be printing that chart off for future reference👍........and people think Buells are odd with their mix of AF and Metric lOl
