Default 10-64 thread???

Hit an estate sale this morning and scored a few nice items I can use.
One thing I bought, 'just because' was a #10-64 die with two matching
taps. Figured they'd cost me a bloody fortune if I ever needed them, and
a couple bucks would cover the cost of inventorying them in the
meantime. G

Anyway, anyone have any idea what might use a 10-64 thread?
Some sort of musical, or scientific instrument thread?
Or just some oddball application?


Just for someone who needs fairly fine adjustment screws.
Granted, it is pretty close to 0.40mm (actually 0.3969mm) which is about
a "tenth" (0.0001") off -- close enough for a lot of things.

Enjoy,
DoN.
