Mates

M12x1.75-6g screws into a thread of the same standard at the same size and pitch. The standard mating internal thread is class 6H. 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.
