I was recently rebuilding a cylinder on a Chinese tractor for a friend and the zerks were SAE and not metric. They sure keep you guessing. I didn't try the fitting so who knows.
Go figure o_O

If you mean the threaded part of the zircs, they are BSPP which is close enough to NPTT to fit and work. Sometimes they are tighter and you have to run a tap down a bit.

Our takeuchi is exactly as John said. When we first got it i searched everywhere for the bspp fittings and could not find any so i do just as John said. The majority of hydraulic hose shops i went to did not even know that they are a thing.
