    Cosmetic threads not carrying through asseblies.

    Thanks for the reply. I didn't update because I didn't want to double post. I actually started using the configuration feature and I cannot believe that we've never used this before... It's EXACTLY what I was needing. Using the configurations, I was able to reduce potentially 6 files, using the...

    Cosmetic threads not carrying through asseblies.

    I don't believe that is my issue. I tried to recreate the problem and semi-successfully did so. The only difference between the original and recreation is that the cosmetic thread showed in the assembly on the recreation. I'm guessing that for some reason Solidworks assumes that if the threading...

    Figure 206 ACME Thread dimension

    We don't actually have B1.5 and we don't change change acme threading enough to justify getting it. (We sell MAYBE 4 of these valves a year and they're usually standard.) I figured I was going to need to contact a supplier but I was hoping I would be able to find a chart with more sizes on it...

    Figure 206 ACME Thread dimension

    I'm in the process of modifying a relief valve we manufacture to have an outlet for this particular hammer union. It's for a 4" union and so far I have only been able to find that the ACME thread is 4-3 modified. I can't find any dimensions for this type of thread to give our machinists. Has...
