    5/16 x 32tpi maybe? Measures just under 5/16" diameter
    definitely 32 tpi.

    It is a SCHRADER valve.

    Dear Gene,

    Here's the scoop from the engineering world's
    version of rec.bicycles.tech:

    Dimensions of standard tire valve
    faq68-636

    According to the Tire and Rim Association (and they should know) the standard Schrader valve has the following thread:

    7.7 mm OD
    32 tpi, or 0.794 mm pitch
    Minor diameter is 6.9mm
    Thread designation is .305-32 or 7.7-32
    Nice mix of inches and millimetres

    From what they say, I suspect that almost
    nothing except a Scharder valve cap fits.

    I've seen inner tubes with a small nut that holds the valve
    onto the tube itself. Might be worth seeking one out.

    Dear Zog,

    Doh!

    Motorcycle inner tubes come with hex
    nuts on their fully threaded Schrader valve
    stems. Any dealer will likely donate a few.

    It's been so long since I had a flat on a
    motorcycle that I'd forgotten these nuts.

    Dear Zog,

    Doh!

    Dear Carl,

    The correct spelling is "D'oh!” At least that is the way
    that Abe quoted Homer Simpson in a "Life in Hell" strip,
    which should be considered authoritative.

    These things are important. 🙂

    On the other hand, the Oxford English Dictionary dates the
    word to 1945 and spells it "doh", so it could be that
    Groening spelled it wrong. The "d'oh" spelling doesn't
    appear until 1996 in the OED's list of quotations. I would
    think the two forms would be pronounced slightly
    differently, so it would depend on how Carl pronounces it.

    Dear Ray,

    Now there's a comment that I can agree with!

    " . . . so it would depend on how Carl pronounces it."

    D'O! that this too too sallied flesh would melt,
    Thaw, and resolve itself into a D'Ew!

    However, if one is quoting Homer Simpson (likely in Carl
    Fogel's case, considering the numerous Simpson's references
    in his postings), then one should spell the expression the
    way Matt Groening does.
