Mates

2.25-4 PUSH-BUTT-2B takes a thread of the same standard at the same size and pitch. The standard mating external thread is class 2A. 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.
