Old Sievert propane torch - what thread?

[AdW]

Hi,

I’ve picked up an older sievert propane torch but i’m a bit stumped on what connector I need to connect it to a gas hose. The thread on the bottom is right hand and seems to be pretty close to M14 x 1.0 but the only fittings I can see on the internet for this job on Sievert torches all left hand 3/8 BSP which I figure is for the newer torches?

Hopefully a couple of pictures will help (and will actually appear!)

The nut is just a locking nut which holds the handle in place.

Google hasn’t helped, so does anyone here know what I need?

Thanks,

I believe they're a bastard size, from what I can see on the WWW. 26tpi but 0.784 OD (larger than 3/4 Brass thread).

Cheers Seadog, can I ask where you found that? I take it that it is a bespoke Sievert part then?

Any ideas where I could find one?

Try a plumbers merchant or Machine Mart.

Thanks, but all the nuts on that link are listed as left hand 3/8 BSP which is too big and too coarse. Not to mention left hand...

Give us a clue on search terms please as I am drawing a blank .
26tpi seems right but the major diameter of the thread on this torch is 13.85 mm or 0.545”.

Thanks

I have an adaptor female thread that fits the torch to a 3/8 rh bsp male thread you can have if you want it. you just need a standard tail to fit to it
