Anyone know what this thread is likely to be?
Its from the 1950's so not metric.

There isnt a pitch that it aligns with.whats your thread pitch gauge say and a zeus book
Not from 1950's, unlikely.Given that the thread is mullered, you sure it isn’t M24x3 ?
Well if nothing Imperial has that pitch.....Not from 1950's, unlikely.
Tractor crank boltwhats it off
You are not doing us any favours by showing the pitch of the male thread and not its OD.
Similarly, you are showing us the tapping size of the female thread without showing its pitch.
Screw a wooden dowel into the crank and try to measure the pitch of the female thread from the impression left on the dowel.
Measure over five pitches of the bolt instead of two.
Measure the OD of the bolt.
Measure the A/F size of the bolt.
Mr brightspark has maybe hit the nail on the head. It does look approximately like 5/8 - 14 BSP (see the URL) .
It ain't metricmight be 24mm
