Hello
I have to make an M13x05 thread on a part for one of my customers.
Unfortunately there is no way to find M13 in the different menus.
An alternative?
FYI, here is the standard for taps DIN 2181 HSS-G - M 13 x 0.5
Hello
Basic Solidworks contains only the most common tapping. If you regularly do tapping of this type, it may be interesting to add them to the "ToolBox" using the "ToolBox" parameterization tool.
Kind regards

Thank you Pierre for this feedback.
It's a really one-off request for the time being.
Do you have a tutorial to recommend to me to add them via the toolbox?
Kind regards
Hello
Normally you have a box "Show custom size" and there you enter the diameter that suits you.
I came across M13 but for the holes and not for the taps (are not all logical anyway^^)
Kind regards

Thank you
I use the custom size but there for a thread it doesn't fit.
Hello
Do you just want the representation or the full modeling?
- For the representation: you have to make the pilot hole with the drilling wizard (drilling size / Ø12), then insert the annotation "thread representation" (without using a standard and giving 13 as a dimension);
- for the complete modeling: A helical sweep must be made. The problem is to have the right odds, especially with a step of 0.5.

Hello;
I'm attaching a little personal tutorial that I had made to create new piercings.
The procedure remains similar for the creation of tapped holes, respecting the dimensions of the holes Vs Taps...
you will also find some explanations for using the CalloutFormat file (old generation but still usable).
Warning: Remember to always work on a copy of your toolbox otherwise you may lose all your changes in a future update...
Kind regards.
