I've been through this before a few times. I have a couple of hydraulic
floor jacks that were made in China that have non standard zerk fitting
on them.
The Chinese zerk is too small for a standard SAE gun chuck to grip

Gene,
I, too, had to guess what a zerk might be. It's not im my dictionary.
Are you aware that zerks according to DIN and ISO (6 and 8 mm) have
conic 1 mm threads, just like whitworth pipe threads, and this way they
are supposed to be oil pressure proof after tightening.

Good point. My (Imperial) milling machine has non-clipping fittings

Greetings;
Does anyone know the tpi or tpmm of those miniature zerks on Chinese ball
nuts is? Its 5.75mm for the major thread diameter, so I assume they might
be able to call it a 6mm thread, but it is obviously a coarser tpmm than
the 6x1mm's bolts I have.
I am considering making an adapter
