I have a Bini & Baronio 36 cal revolver and I am trying to determine the correct nipples for replacement. The currect nipples are #10 caps but I would like to get #11 cap replacements since #10 caps are difficult to find.
 
Determine the thread size. If unknown, take the cylinder to a hardware store and see what fits. Measure the cone height....from the base where the threads start to the face of the cone. Go to Track of the Wolf and match up your dimensions and thread size with one of their nipples which will take #11 caps.
 
he best idea to find out what the thread size is, is to take the nipple to a good hardware store or a auto parts supply store.

Both places will have thread measuring equipment to determine what the thread size and pitch is.
