Rear Axle Thread Compatibility

Hi,

I could do with a longer axle (spindle) on my rear hub. It's a Campag hub, from the early '80s. I don't know the model, but it wasn't one of their highest priced ones that's for sure. Looking on Velobase they could well be "Nuovo Tipo".

Are the threads standardised, so that I can get any old spindle of the correct length, and keep the Campag cones and locknuts? Or do I need a special "Campag compatible" one?

Thanks in advance, Tony S
