    Gunworks do.
    They even have Tardme auction for thread protectors, but go direct to them.

    Or pop down to your nearest engineering (nuts and bolts) supplier. And get a single nut the right size. Works well. You can even usually get stainless for a very small price....Even in odd ball threads.

    what timattalon said , if you can find a nut with the right thread , ... turn it down in a lathe , add knurling and boom , thread protector !!!!

    It would be better to wrap some #8 around the thread and rub back to shape with some sand soap Thats how a real Kiwi would do it anyway

    are you sure you have the thread correct? 11 x 1 is really odd.
