What Size Threads do Tap Handles and Facets Have

  • Standard Thread Size: 99% of tap handles in the U.S. use a 3/8"-16 thread on both the ferrule (bottom of the handle) and the faucet.

  • Metric Exceptions: A small number of imported tap handles use a metric M10-1.5 thread, but these are rare in the U.S. market.

  • How to Check the Tap Handle Thread Size:

    • Bring your tap handle to a local hardware store and use a thread checker commonly found on the bolt and nut isle.

    • Alternatively, test it with a 3/8"-16 bolt—if it threads in smoothly, it's a match.

  • How to Check the Faucet Threads:

    • Use a 3/8"-16 nut and see if it threads onto the faucet post. If it does, you have standard U.S. faucet threads.
