Exactly what the title says... What sort of threads do schraders have on the body and also can you get any taps of that size?

External thread
Metric: 7.7 mm OD, thread root diameter is 6.9 mm × 0.794 mm pitch.
Imperial: 0.305 in OD, thread root diameter 0.271 in × 32 tpi
and also can you get any taps of that size?
No.
You can however buy cheap alloy schrader caps on eBay and machine them

Thanks guys! I thought I had already googled it though
I wish someone would make taps for them. That's a good idea with the caps though Jack, thanks

I actually thought he meant the thread on the body of the schrader valves that actually thread into something.
Like the schraders that go on a water tank.
