3" Beall Bowl Buff Thread Size

[Fred Conte]

I called Beall but they couldn't tell me the thread count on their 3" bowl buffs, also how long is the bolt? I was told they're 3/8" but nothing else.

Thanks!

3/8" x 16 TPI

...and I just talked to someone at Beall a week ago that knew the answer.

Not sure about bolt length off hand, but I can check.

I am in the process of making a knockoff of the Beall system and have a Beall Morse headstock adapter.

The bolts I bought were 3/8-16 and they fit the Beall adapter.

Thank you for the info, I made a stand alone buffer and need to drill and tap the aluminum extension but didn't know the tap size and depth I should go.
