I've not seen them. But you can get hold of some reasonable quality metric ones that are a coarser thread

Just searched on google and they do unc ones in the states. Try abc bearings down in surrey they may have some.

i wouldn't worry too much paul , what you loose in strength in the aluminium thread to gain in the rod end body by having a thicker core with fine threads and vise vrsa for course threads,

i'd persomally use fine and have a stronger rod end,size for size or course

I bought some bars from a strange company up in NY once. They were aluminium and threaded 7/16UNF if I recall correctly..

North Yorkshire of course. I think the name of the company was "Farce" or something.
