Default H9 Pro Link Threads

Does anyone know if the H9 Pro Link threads are actually 4-40 or might they be 3mm? These look VERY similar to Lunsford Turnbuckles used in the RC Car World, and the Lunsfords are threaded 3mm (per Lunsford's web.site). I know Horizon states that the H9s are 4-40, but I just wanted to confirm if this is correct before purchasing them. (Tower mis-states that the Lunsfords are 4-40).

Thanks in advance!

I know for a fact that the Lunsford are metric as I used them on my DPM Edge 27%. Just use the self threading stuff for 4-40 and they work great. The H9 are probably indeed 4-40 as they are designed for aircraft. The Lunsford are for cars which are all metric.

H9 ones are self tapping and not 4-40 machine,
I have seen lunsford ones also was thinking about ordering some instead of h9 ones.
