What is the thread form for the front brake adjuster?

What is the thread form for the Commando front brake plate cable adjuster? It appears that I have two brake plates with different threads, one seems to be 5/16"X26TPI and the other is 5/16" X 22?

Can you possibly have 2 that have been butchered?
commando TLS should be 5/16-24 UNF.

There is a mod done to a featherbed cable when using a commando TLS on a featherbed.
Maybe someone butchered the TLS brake plate instead of moding the cable.
My atlas' are 26tpi

thats correct Atlas SLS 5/16 x 26 tpi and 2LS Commando 5/16 Unf

MOD? this one? Last I can remember this is my process:
demanufacture original atlas brake cable end,
remove atlas 5/16-26 adjuster
install commando 5/16-24 adjuster on atlas cable,
reassemble end on atlas cable.

cable now fit for use on original featherbed with Commando TLS brake.

Ok...On mine I used a TLS cable and cut the inner cable to length and then resoldered it....
