I am going to make a few stepup rings for the Helios-40 85/1.5, such that more common 67mm filters can be used, but I do not have a lens around to check the filter thread.

So ... does anyone know the pitch ? 66mm x 0.75 ?

66mm? I thought its lens size is 49mm or 52mm. There are some othions of Helios 44. Check this. Mike

I could send you one of the filters if need be. If I get a chance tomorrow I will buy a guage and measure mine. Would love to have the step down ring you are making.
