Specifying an SAE port (J1926) - drawing callout

[BowTied]

Hello all:

I did a search and did not find what I was wanted, I think this is a simple question: I am createing a drawing where a -8 threaded fitting will be installed and I need to specify to the machine shop what the machined hole will be. Is it as simple as a leader with "SAE J1926 -8"? I believe there is a tool the machine shop purchases to create these ports or at least rough it out and I would like to properly specify the port. Or do I need to specify all the machining details like here: (

Thanks for the help.

I haven't got a clue! Has this anything to do with piping systems?

Sorry .

Well, perhaps I have posted in the wrong forum? This is a standard hydraulic fluid power fitting. When doing my initial searches I did find references to this SAE port in this forum. This seemed like the correct forum by description, please direct me if I have made a mistake.
Thanks,
Ron
