I'm not sure what you mean. Just like the SM57/SM58 mikes, there is a
plastic Switchcraft connector insert with a reverse-threaded screw. The
insert slips into the body of the mike, you turn the screw counterclockwise
and it locks into the body.

There really isn't any threading, except in that insert. If you have
somehow managed to damage the threading in the insert, just get any male
Switchcraft XLR connector and transplant the insert from it onto the mike.
