quite simple really

i want some ally knobs made with a 10mm thread so i can unscrew my panniers off the bike, 8 pieces, like a small doorknob with a knurled edge in ally.

any restriction on diameters?

any restriction on thickness?
if you are going to be screwing them on and off fairly frequently they would be better with a helicoil insert so the thread will last longer
is it a std pitch m10 thread?
and are you in a rush for them?
thats all the questions
