What size thread for AVX mount

[baggywrinkle]

I need to find out what size the thread is on the bolt that secures the AVX head to the tripod or pier.

I want to find a bolt to secure the to the pier in my new obsy.

An M10 x 1.50, quite possibly, and quite probably...

 

However, I would take the spreader assembly to the hardware store and have the size and pitch matched.

M10 also known as 3/8"

Thanks.

Never know if it will be metric or US Imperial as it is Celestron...but of course made in China.

This is what I used for my AVX when I put it on a permanent pier:

1. You could pop down to "Nuts & Bolts" in Old Meadow Road on the Hardwick, if your not sure where it is, Turn right where B&Q is then right again there on the left. Take the mount just to be sure.....
