screw thread in inch

[toraple]

Hi everybody,

I always with metric units. But I need to create for a supplier a screw thread in inch, but not unified or the NPT.

How can I do it in Nx 6 ? I tried every single solution in the function Thread.

Thanks

Are you talking about a Male (external) or Female (internal) thread? If it's an Internal thread, use the Threaded-hole option in the Hole function. You say it's not 'Unified'. If it's NOT 'Unified', what does the specification/requirement says that it is?

To an Engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

It's for an internal thread. I tried with the hole function. Indeed there is much more choices about thread and I found the one which is perfect for the part.

thanks
