Hi,
as you can see from the attached part, the thread do not through the cylinder.
Have tried different solution, but not.
The only solution is to create the hole on one side and then make a mirror feature.
But I would like that works.

Thank you...

You could just put in two threaded holes, one on each side.

I've been over this before with development; a Thread feature can only be applied to a single face, even if it was part of single threaded-hole that just happened to result in the creation of two faces, as is the case in your model.
