Re: heat slot revisited
Pipe threads are not inches. It's just 1 pipe, 1/2 pipe, etc. This application probably calls for 1/8 pipe. A google search will likely give you a table with the actual dimensions along with the drill size required to run a given size pipe tap.
My concern with those little Welsh plugs is that they are probably pretty thin material and may rust out over time, so I think a suitable size pipe plug is a better way to go.
