Hi Gang:

If what you are tapping is thin, a 26 or 28 tap could cut a usable thread.

1/4" x 27 TPI was used on old electric lamps for brass parts. There are a lot of "odd" ones out there.

This has piqued my curiosity¡ªwhat equipment used 27tpi? It must have been common enough somewhere b/c I just googled it and found it's stupid easy to get 3/4-27tpi taps and dies. Not even that dear, really, the tap is under $25.
