Using non-standard threads in NX10
Using non-standard threads in NX10
(OP)
I'm sure that this must have been covered before but my searching isn't being helpful so:
I am trying to create a tapped hole with the thread M100x4 unfortunately the hole feature only gives the option for M100x6 and I can't find a way to change this. On the same sort of line, how would I put in a tapped hole to a different thread standard, eg BSP, NPT, UNF, etc.?
The tapped hole feature seems incredibly limited, though this may of course be how the system has been set up.

However it doesn't address the fact that I wish to have a thread that is M100x4, not M100x6 that is coarse and M100x2 which is the only Metric Fine option. It isn't unknown to specify an OD & Pitch for large diameter threads but it would appear that NX won't let you do this. It also doesn't list all the metric fine threads, e.g. M10x1.0 which I have used a number of times.

RE: Using non-standard threads in NX10
I never heard of any of the GB193 standard, or of any of those listed below it. A quick search on NX help & the internet doesn't give any great help except GB193 might be a Chinese standard.
Could anyone help with what all these standards are?
