I imported this from a STEP file. Im trying to delete and fill in a few of these threaded holes with the delete face and heal took but the threads seemed like they are "locked". Any help would be great,.

    Hi, I think this could be solved by selecting the other side(s) of the thread. It seems that you have only selected one side of the thread. Maybe it is neccecerey to select the bottom side of the hole as well.
    It would be helpful if you could share a document.

    It might be easier to delete all the faces of the threaded hole (with heal option) and then recreate the hole.
