I need about 12” of hollow tube with an M4x.7, outside thread. I have searched the usual places, Micromark, Ali Express, Amazon, eBay with no success. Lots of solid rod and inside threaded connectors but not what I need.
Does anyone know a possible source? Thanks

Mcmaster Carr has 4mm tubing and also sells metric dies. If you can't find any ready made you could make your own.

Try your local electrician

Thanks, Pete. That may be the way to go.
Brass tubing larger than 1 1/2" od is now almost impossible to find in small quantities. I used to buy it in 12' lengths - no more.
Sink tailings used to be threaded - I think they are all plastic now.
Small Parts Inc? I used to have a catalogue....

Great source but long gone now.

Try onlinemetals for raw material.
Thanks, everyone. I have ordered 4mm tube and a die, I’ll just make my own.
