I'm interested in making a bell-shaped jungle carbine-style flash hider to fit on the muzzle of my CZ 858 tactical rifle, and I would like to know what the pitch of the threads on the barrel is.
 
Not sure, but as an alterative you could perhaps get a spare muzzle nut and weld your flash hider cone to it? I've been thinking along those lines (with an AR flash sppressor) but haven't actually got around to doing anything about it yet.
 
I think they are 14x1 RH

Coincidentally I have a flash hider cone for my VZ ill take a few pics tomorrow 4 you.

It came with my rifle when i bought it used but it is off some other type of Czech machine gun.

Ill see if i can find a pic. It even has the little cutouts for the pin that holds it in place.

Looks like this one. Not sure where it came from (My best guess is Marstar??)

There is a picture in Small Arms of the World (i've got the 10th addition), that shows a Vz-58 with exactly that cone flash hider installed along with bipod (that never sems to be available). Kind of like a C2 in concept.
 
They have this coneshaped mussleattachment for both the vz58 and the vz59machinegun. I saw it when I visited a gunshow in Praha. It differs a little in size elsewhere they look almost identical. And it's right the treads are 12.1RH
