Mates

1.375-12 PUSH-BUTT-2A screws into a thread of the same standard at the same size and pitch. The standard mating internal thread is class 2B. Check the fit with the standard pair →

Working out the mating options…

Different pitch or a different thread family never mate; the fit check runs over both tolerance zones.
