Medium Fit for Thru Holes in UNC Hole Tables

[ptc-2513036]

Hi,

I have been trying to incorporate all callout notes for ISO and for UNC/UNF into two tables. This includes all of our applicable scenarios: Tapped, Clearance, C'BORE and C'SINK.

Did this by adding a DEFAULT_CALLOUT_FORMAT_DATA section to each table and it works brilliantly.

The only problem I have is that my UNC/UNF (INCH) table will not display the Medium Fit option when defining a Clearance hole.

The UNC/UNF (INCH) table (In Testing) was created after the ISO table was completed and deployed by doing a save as from the ISO table and updating the THREAD_DATA values.

Does anyone have any tips for resolving this issue?

Regards,

Jason Knighten

Medium fit is only valid and displayed when the hole table is using metric units.

No idea. Asking ‘why’ about PTC products usually doesn’t lead to a satisfying answer.

Why can’t holes change size via relations (1/2-13 to 3/8-16, etc.)?
Why can’t holes change size via a family table?
Why can’t thread depth be controlled independently?
Why can’t drill depth be controlled independently?
Why haven’t the hole tables been updated/expanded since version 24 (22 for UNF)?

… and on and on.
It’s no wonder people are forced to create their own custom holes and the tools to use them.
