What size are square threaded lugs that are welded to the side of the hull on a Sherman (E8) to bolt on spare single tracks?

There were no lugs to hold the tracks. There were 1/2-inch diameter studs welded to the hull with clamps held on with nuts.

Thanks. I searched hi 'n lo for close up pics, but my search was futile. Didn't really know what terms to google either.
