I see you have asked this question in several places. I have read some for what they are worth. The Japanese manufacturers seems to have gotten a mind about a JIS for an 'equivalent' connector. I don't know this for sure, but I have come across some incompatible look alike connectors on some well known Japanese brand high power amplifiers. Your Chinese parts may have been copied from one of these incompatible connectors. Owen The problem of metric PL259's is well known in the UK at least , and adaptors and 'metric' connectors are available from Ham Radio dealers. 73 Jeff That may explain the problem I had with a couple of connectors . I was able to borrow a die to run over them. The metric threads must be very close to the SAE. After rethreading them they worked but I didnt like the way the threads looked so i trashed them.
