Did you buy a new bathtub drain that won't screw In? This is due to your new drain having a different thread pitch and possibly different outside diameter of the drain threads. This is easily correctible with a few simple measurements to help you choose the correct adapter drain bushing to screw over your new bathtub drain threads. This new bathtub drain bushing will then adapt your new drain kit to screw in to the drain opening on the bottom of your bathtub.
