Rectangular Gallon Can Spout

I want to make my own pour spouts for those rectangular gallon tin cans. My problem is I do not know what thread size they are! My hope is F360 has the correct threads, but how do you decide which one is correct? I am using PLA so I will test to see if the product melts the plastic, but I want to get it in the computer to try it. Any ideas? Thanks again!

 

I have found no-one who sells spouts for these cans so I will make them myself!

I think you will have to model a custom thread for your part.

A search on "bottle thread" or "custom thread" will give you quite a few examples for creating similar threads.

I do not see myself being good enough with making my own threads for that to happen anytime soon, but I did find the blueprint, so if anyone gets one of those round tuits, please share. Thanks again!
