1/2” Course to Fine Thread Adapter???

[farleythefish]

Hi I’m at my wits end trying to find a lamp adapter for my friends French (I think) lamp. It has a larger thread on the lamp to the thread on a normal bulb holder. I ordered a French thread adapter which would have been perfect if it was 10mm but it’s not it’s 1/2 inch. Any ideas on where I can get a 1/2” one???

It’s not a reducer it’s a 1/2” to 1/2” course to fine thread adapter that I need……

Thanks @snowhead
another website to add to my list of places to go to buy stuff that you accidentally found out about!

If it is French, it is likely to be metric, not 1/2".
Though not definitely.
How accurately can you measure it, and can you measure the thread pitch/TPI?
That way, it can be matched up to the known thread sizes.
PG7, which is a metric European electrical thread size, is 12.5mm OD and 1.27mm pitch.
1/2" conduit would b 12.7, OD, and 18tpi.
25.4/18=1.41mm, so close to the PG size.
But, the 1/2" thread is not forced to be a conduit thread, hence why I have suggested accurate measurement and measuring the TPI/pitch.
Diameter with a vernier or digital vernier, and the pitch would need to be by elimination. You will get an 18tpi pitch gauge and probably a 1.25 and a 1.5; you might get a 1.27 as it is a tenth of 1/2" in mm.
You may get a 1.4 (probably) and a 1.45 (possibly), but a 1.41 is doubtful.
