    facet/bendix look alike hollow screw wanted

    o.k after several attemps to find a source over here in europe .i`ll give it a try here.

    i do have a facet fuel pump(the bendix look alike) that does not have the typical thread as the other ones i have in hands.
    i`m missing a hollow screw needed to connect the fuel line with a banjo fitting.

    the diameter of the thread of the hollow screw that fits in the facet pump is 12,7mm(1/2") but it has 18 threads per inch
    the typical hydraulic standard here is 20 threads per inch..i did quite a bit of googeling and learned abot the NPT(F) standard in the US which this specific screw possibly is

    anyone with a source for this urgently needed item?

    thanks much

    I only have some 1/8 NPT elbows from facet pumps lying around. https://www.gewinde-normen.de/npt-rohrgewinde.html
    Bendix was M10x1
    If it is 1/8 or 1/4 NPT

    You could try to re-thread a 1/8 npt to a M10x1 that could work - done that on some oil pressure pick-ups

    It's been a while, and not sure if pertinent to this discussion, but I had to re-tap the threads on the pump side. The threads are close but not identical to the banjo fitting kit that was/is being sold on this site. I've never had a leak and must have done four pumps that way. I can go look at the tap size if that helps.

    Is this what we're talking about?

    If so the tap for two pump fittings is is M10x1.0.

    the facet i have has 1/4" NTP and i was thinking about re-thread with 1/2" unf 18 or 20..as last resort..i think one of those could work just by forcing it in + teflon tape.
    but i prefere the clean way
