Zerk Fitting Identification, Help Switching to Right Angle

[YoshiMoshi3]

I have this zerk fitting. I ordered a bunch online that were 90 degrees, 45 degrees, but it seems I got the wrong thread pitch. Using a thread pitch tool, it seems that it is 1.0 mm threads 60 degrees and approximately 5.5 mm in overall length for the threaded portion.

What kind of zerk fitting is this? I would like to get a right angle one for ease of access.

Thanks for the help guys.

Very cool, info-packed catalog, as per GL Huyett normal.

D on my zerk fitting is about 0.25
S is about 8.0 mm
L is 5.5 mm

Cool thanks! So I guess I have a 1/4"-28-Straight zerk, and I should be able to just buy a bunch of 1/4"-28 fittings to get a 45 degree or 90 degree one?

Nice catalog indeed!

Am I correct in identifying this zerk fitting?

Lots of size choices for zerks:
M6-1.0 (metric application/foreignsuppliers)
¼-28
⅛-27
¼-18
are the 4 most common ones I've come across. Harry
