Need help! NEQ6 centre bolt size?

[Merlin66]

Guys,
I hope someone has the answer...
Just about to remount the NEQ6pro head onto a pier top....
Measured the centre bolt at 11.75mm over threads....this just doesn't feel right....
I'm assuming it's metric (!?) - what's the actual sized bolt I'm looking for...
Thanks.

Ken, maybe you can unscrew the star knob and take it bunnings.
They have a testbed with various bolt and nut thread sizes.

Hi Ken,

The centre bolt on my NEQ6 appears to be an M12 with 1.75 thread pitch.

The pdf at this address has some details on dimensions.

Hi Ken, I can confirm the centre bolt is definitely M12 course (1.75mm pitch)
I have used a 316 Stainless bolt on my pier adaptor here:
