I’ve got this bike I’m stripping for parts and I have these thread on freewheel adapters for disk brakes there looks to be plenty of meat on the hubs. Is it possible to thread it to accept the adapter? What would be the threading? I’ve attached pictures in case I didn’t explain it well.

What does the other side of the wheel look like? I've used those on both of my bikes, for the front wheel I used it as a spacer to add a disc, had the remove the threads of the adapter though. If you need i can take pictures

Here's the front wheel, the hub had holes alread but I used it as a spacer and more "meat" to hold the bolts:

I also filed down the threads on it to fit snugly on the hub.

And here is a harder to see one i threaded onto the rear wheel of another bike instead of the gear:

I see it's an older thread but I figured I post this video I did while back of hub options if people come across this question!
