Nut Size?

[sampit]

Hi, looking for a bit of help,Im looking for a half nut to tighten down an atti in a box mod but cant find a nut to fit any were!
pulled every draw out looking today with no luck, I Give up, looks like I will have to buy a few, but not sure on the size needed. I think its either M6 or M8, its got a very fine thread
same size thread on centre pins and most RDAs

Don't think you will find a half nut you are that you are looking for so you need to make your own.

Buy a m5 half nut, drill it out with a 6.5mm drill and thread it with a 7mm X .5 tap.
