Hi @jhuertaUVZSZ 

No, you cannot do that using a coupler.

Do you need to do that in order to account for some extra length for fabrication at that end (creating the thread) or some other reason?

The coupler has two engagement lengths - engagement 1 and 2. The sum of these must be equal to the coupler length. At most one can be 0 and the other be equal to the coupler length.

Excuse the delay in answering?

Yes, I need it to take into account an additional length for manufacturing

On the other hand, is there the possibility to generate a family using the Coupler's family or another family that creates the functionality that I am looking for, join two bars of the indicated way?
