Can't you measure the bolt? If the thread has stripped, you would be better off helicoiling it

Use a micrometer or vernier gauge to measure diameter and a steel rule to measure the pitch. I'd measure the length of 10 threads (which in your case would have equalled 15mm) then divide by 10 (which in your case would have given you your answer of 1.5). When I worked as a quality engineer I used to use a shadowgraph but no-one will have one of those in their garage.
