Threaded Holes-Thread size dimension need it but not listed.

Threaded Holes-Thread size dimension need it but not listed.

(OP)
Hello fellow drafters!
I'm a new user of NX 8.5 so If possible,I need some help with the "Threaded Hole feature".
I have a hardware piece that has a threaded hole of 2 1/2-12 but this threaded is not listed on the regular drop down. Is it any way to create,add or download more standard threaded holes to this list? This list seems very short to use for most mechanical models and common internal threads.
I appreciate any help or guidance.

RE: Threaded Holes-Thread size dimension need it but not listed.

Did you try changing the "standard" (found in the settings section of the dialog) to "Inch UN"?

If the 'Inch UN' is not available in the Settings section of the Hole Feature dialog, as shown below (and in the attached image), then someone has been messing with your Thread tables:
