Threads on an arc
Threads on an arc
(OP)
Can anyone help me? I need to model a part that requires me to model threads on an arc. I am having trouble finding a solution to this, and would appreciate your input. Thanks!

RE: Threads on an arc
Create one thread using a helical sweep in a straight line tangent to the arc.
Rotate and copy that single thread about the centerline of the arc.
It's not geometrically correct, but it makes for a pretty good visual representation.
