Partial Threading of round bar
Partial Threading of round bar
(OP)
How do you partially thread a bar in solid edge? I need to thread about 50mm of a 150mm bar but it won't allow me to do this as it simply threads the whole bar even when I use a finite value for it.
Anyone able to help?
Thanks.

RE: Partial Threading of round bar
the thread is OK! It's only that the whole face is coloured
green just to viaualize that this part is threaded.
See topic:
im trying to make a finite value for the thread depth
(the link, however, is no longer valid)

All you need to stop the thread is a minute change in diameter of the bar. You can trick SE by including a tiny groove in the shaft at the termination of the thread.
