I'm not sure there is a standard. The thread on my Avid brolly is different to the thread on my old Nubrolli.

With threads is could be anything...3/8 threads are 9.5mm so if its too large it could be 10mm / 12mm or 1/2 inch (12.7mm) 7/16 inch (11.1mm)

To be exact you need to measure the diameter and either use a thread gauge or count the TPI (threads per inch).

When i worked in engineering i had a little booklet type thing that had all the info in charts, i cant remember the name, but it fit perfect in the top pocket of your overalls
