26tpi pitch is close to 1mm pitch, but not close enough to work. A thin locknut, with only a couple threads engaged might work, but a cone with many threads engaged would jam long before you could thread it down far enough to work. The 26tpi thread pitch was only used by Campagnolo and a couple other Italian makes (Gipiemme, Ofmega, Miche), so unless you hubs were made by one of those companies, they're unlikely to be 26tpi pitch.

You can, in many cases, replace the entire axle set (axle, cones, locknuts) to get a working repair. Wheels Manufacturing offers a variety of axle sets that may be suitable replacements.
The OP's bike is a cheap Italian Bianchi Pista track bike with cheap non-Italian (Alex Solo) hubs, so the front hub most likely has a 9mm X 1mm solid axle, unlikely to be 9mm X 26 TPI, and certainly not going to be 10mm. Anyway, all the OP needs is to find the correct set of front axle nuts, or at least one axle nut to replace the one that has stripped threads.
