axle nuts
I have Redline chrome swivel washer axle nuts 3/8" X 24T and they dont fit on my hub. 3/8 is right but the threads are off. Does anyone know of another standard that it could be and where I could get the axle nuts with washers in them, thanks!

No; they use a weird mutant mix of metric and English. Even Italian BB threading reflects this: 36mm x 1tpi. I've heard this is a result of SAE machine tooling being more readily available after WWII, but can't vouch for the reliability of this claim.
