Do you have the gear to accurately measure the pitch and the OD? If so you should be able to confirm it from tables available online.

Or have you already done that?

The major is 30mm ish so it looks like a 7/8 thread -0 if its a BSP, if it is a bsp thread they aren't all that easy to find in that size. Most things BSP wise go directly from 3/4 to 1"

I hope that Steve from the aforementioned company can at least tell me what the thread is / size, as we know there are some very strange threads out there.
