German term or phrase: Überprüfung der Passgenauigkeit des Innengewindes
Too many genitives for me! The whole sentence is "überprüfung des innengewindes der passgenauigkeit anhand der stichproben"
It comes from a list of quality checks carried out on a container for liquid in an inhaler.

another check (this time on the external casing) was "überprüfung der passgenauigkeit anhand der stichproben", which I have as "Accurate fit checked by sampling", but I'm open to suggestions for that too ...

Explanation:
The other answers do not take the "Innengewinde" into consideration and the "Paßgenauigkeit" is "tolerance" in technical texts.
