Hi! The attached picture itself describes the problem well. I've created threaded coils by means of Thread Modeller (AI'2015). For some reason I want to subtract a rectangle across the coils by extrusion. The coils always remain intact. Would you let me know how to deal with this issue? Thank you.

Solved by JDMather. Go to Solution.
Notice that you have 3 Solid Bodies.
Use the Combine command to combine the 3 bodies into one before you do the Extrude - Cut.
Did you check the thread-form profile and make sure it is appropriate (60° and not Whitworth 50°)?
Can you attach your ipt file here?
Yes, it works. Thanks a lot for helping me.
BTW, I've donloaded the model from this very forum.
Regards!

Edit the sketch and note the threadform angle of 55°.
This is a British Whitworth threadform - generally obsolete in this century.
Inch or metric standards that I am aware of use a 60° angle.
