Hey all,
I need to run to the HW store later and I need to know what the thread measurements are for the neplax expansion valve on the left side of the group. Even the tech at NS didn't know off-hand and I don't know if I can accurately measure the old valve because the threads are stripped. Does anyone know? Thanks!

hopefully you figured it out.
whatever it is, i'm thinking it uses BSP and not NPT since the thing is made in Europe. Did a quick google search and i found this chart with the amount of threads per inch. http://pipeandhose.com/node/2

I think it ended up being 10mmx1mm thread pitch. Didn't help me at all, since Lowe's didnt have a bolt that size I could chase the threads in the group with.
