bolt bore unit

Hi, as per the ASME B16.5, under the metric unit system, the bolt bore size is given in imperial, in my project the unit system is metric, how should I get the imperial unit for the bolt bore size?

thanks a lot in advance;

Need to convert into metric, as Projects Run either in metric or imperial.

 

Thank you very much, FromHH for your reply, I am trying to figure out if I could introduce the imperial bore of the bolt into my DXTR's STEXT attribute, if could what expression should I use?

any further smart ides?

Hi All,

My project use Bolting  Units  METRIC in option file.
The bore diameter(BDIA) size in BOM appear as 16 MM.Our project team require the bore to be appear as M16.
Can isodraft provided output as requested by project team?

Thanks

If item code you provide as MBOLT-M16, They can't manage?

Bore will appear as Real value in N.S.(MM) Column.

Iam also eager to know if there is some solution for this.
