    Hello

    I'm trying to modify a .hol file.

    When an M6 x 1.0 hole is used the defaults are 12mm thread depth & 15mm
    hole depth.

    These two values dont appear in the M6 x 1.0 ISO.hol file.

    Hoe does Proe WF2 arrive at these values?

    Thanks

    Geoff

    I think that it uses a percent of the thread depth which is 65% in the .hol
    files that come with Pro/E. In my opinion it is safer to use 1X the thread
    diameter (100%).

    Thanks, I believe its a in built formula, so I'll just have to change
    the values once the hole is placed
