Machine Drawing: Example 1 Calculate The Fundamental Tolerance For A Shaft of 100 MM and Grade 7
Machine Drawing: Example 1 Calculate The Fundamental Tolerance For A Shaft of 100 MM and Grade 7
Machine Drawing
Figure 15.2 shows the tolerances (in microns or in micrometres) that may be obtained
by various manufacturing processes and the corresponding grade number.
Tolerance is denoted by two symbols, a letter symbol and a number symbol, called the grade.
Figure 15.3 shows the graphical illustration of tolerance sizes or fundamental deviations for
letter symbols and Table 15.1 lists the fundamental tolerances of various grades.
It may be seen from Fig. 15.3 that the letter symbols range from A to ZC for holes and
from a to zc for shafts. The letters I, L, O, Q, W and i, l, o, q, w have not been used. It is also
evident that these letter symbols represent the degree of closeness of the tolerance zone (positive
or negative) to the basic size.
Similarly, it can be seen from Table 15.1, that the basic sizes from l mm to 500 mm have
been sub-divided into 13 steps or ranges. For each nominal step, there are 18 grades of tolerances,
designated as IT 01, IT 0 to IT 1 to IT 16, known as Fundamental tolerances.
The fundamental tolerance is a function of the nominal size and its unit is given by the
emperical relation, standard tolerance unit, i = 0.45 3 D + 0.001 D
where i is in microns and D is the geometrical mean of the limiting values of the basic steps
mentioned above, in millimetres. This relation is valid for grades 5 to 16 and nominal sizes
from 3 to 500 mm. For grades below 5 and for sizes above 500 mm, there are other emperical
relations for which it is advised to refer IS: 19191963. Table 15.1A gives the relation between
different grades of tolerances and standard tolerance unit i.

of tolerance unit i for sizes upto 500 mm

Thus, the fundamental tolerance values for different grades (IT) may be obtained either
from Table 15.1 or calculated from the relations given in Table 15.1A.
Example 1 Calculate the fundamental tolerance for a shaft of 100 mm and grade 7.
The shaft size, 100 lies in the basic step, 80 to 120 mm and the geometrical mean is
D=
80 120 = 98 mm

*In determining K, M, N upto grade 8 and P to ZC upto grade 7, take the values from the columns on the right.
Example: For P7, from diameters 18 to 30 mm, = 8; hence ES = 14.

For each letter symbol from a to zc for shafts and A to ZC for holes; the magnitude and
size of one of the two deviations may be obtained from Table 15.2 or 15.3 and the other deviation
is calculated from the following relationship :
Shafts, ei = es IT
Holes, EI = ES IT
where IT is fundamental tolerance of grade obtained from Table 15.1.
NOTE The term shaft in this chapter includes all external features (both cylindrical
and non-cylindrical) and the term hole includes all internal features of any component.
Table 15.4 shows the formulae for calculating the fundamental deviation of shafts. The value
of D is the geometric mean diameter of the range.

In working out limit dimensions for the three classes of fits; two systems are in use, viz., the
hole basis system and shaft basis system.
In this system, the size of the shaft is obtained by subtracting the allowance from the basic size
of the hole. This gives the design size of the shaft. Tolerances are then applied to each part
separately. In this system, the lower deviation of the hole is zero. The letter symbol for this
situation is H.
The hole basis system is preferred in most cases, since standard tools like drills, reamers,
broaches, etc., are used for making a hole.
In this system, the size of the hole is obtained by adding the allowance to the basic size of the
shaft. This gives the design size for the hole. Tolerances are then applied to each part. In this
system, the upper deviation of the shaft is zero. The letter symbol for this situation is h.
The shaft basis system is preferred by (i) industries using semi-finished shafting as raw
materials, e.g., textile industries, where spindles of same size are used as cold-finished shafting
and (ii) when several parts having different fits but one nominal size is required on a single
shaft.
Figure 15.14 shows the representation of the hole basis and the shaft basis systems
schematically. Table 15.5 gives equivalent fits on the hole basis and shaft basis systems to
obtain the same fit.
