GEOMETRIC DIMENSIONING & TOLERANCING

ORIENTATION TOLERANCES
.002 S 1.500 S FOR COAXIAL FEATURES ON PARTS THAT DO NOT ROTATE, USE POSITION. USE MAXIMUM MATERIAL CONDITION IF THE PART FITS WITH CLEARANCE. USE REGARDLESS OF FEATURE SIZE IF THE PART FITS LINE TO LINE OR WITH INTERFERENCE. .005 V .750 .005 .005 V K .003 K-L L

PERPENDICULARITY OF ONE SURFACE TO ANOTHER, USE ONLY WHEN THE IMPLIED 90 ANGLE RULE (THE TOLERANCE OF AN UNDIMENSIONED 90 ANGLE IS CONTROLLED BY THE TITLE BLOCK TOLERANCE) WILL NOT PROVIDE THE REQUIRED CONTROL.

PERPENDICULARITY OF A FEATURE OF SIZE TO A PLANE SURFACE. THIS IS USUALLY USED AS A REFINEMENT OF A POSITIONAL TOLERANCE.

USE RUNOUT ON ALL ROTATING PARTS EXCEPT WHERE CONCENTRICITY IS APPROPRIATE. USE RUNOUT ON SHAFTS THAT ROTATE SLOWLY (BELOW THE FIRST CRITICAL SPEED) AND ON SHAFTS THAT ARE INHERENTLY OUT OF BALANCE (THOSE WITH FLATS OR KEY WAYS OR WHICH HAVE PULLEYS, GEARS OR OTHER SIMILAR PARTS FASTENED TO THEM WITH SET SCREWS). USE CIRCULAR RUNOUT TO CONTROL INDIVIDUAL ELEMENTS OF FEATURES AND TOTAL RUNOUT TO CONTROL COMPLETE SURFACES. RUNOUT IS A COMPOSITE TOLERANCE AND, DEPENDING ON HOW IT IS USED, CAN CONTROL FLATNESS, STRAIGHTNESS, ROUNDNESS, CYLINDRICITY AND POSITION.

PARALLELISM OF ONE SURFACE TO ANOTHER. USE WHEN RULE 1 WILL NOT PROVIDE THE DESIRED CONTROL.

PARALLELISM OF A HOLE TO A PLANE SURFACE. CONSIDER USING A SECONDARY DATUM. THIS IS USUALLY USED AS A REFINEMENT OF A POSITIONAL TOLERANCE. 1.000 .005

THREADED HOLES: USE POSITION REGARDLESS OF FEATURE SIZE WITH A PROJECTED TOLERANCE ZONE.

SLOTS, TABS, KEY WAYS AND SIMILAR FEATURES: USE POSITION. USE MAXIMUM MATERIAL CONDITION IF THE PART FITS WITH CLEARANCE. USE REGARDLESS OF FEATURE SIZE IF THE PART FITS LINE TO LINE OR WITH INTERFERENCE.

FORM TOLERANCES: USE FORM TOLERANCES WHEN "RULE 1" (THE LIMITS OF SIZE OF A FEATURE CONTROLS VARIATIONS IN GEOMETRIC FORM AS WELL AS VARIATIONS IN SIZE) WILL NOT PROVIDE THE REQUIRED CONTROL. H THE DIMENSIONS AND TOLERANCES SHOWN HERE CONTROL THE SIZE OF THE PARTS AND, WITHIN THESE LIMITS, THEIR GEOMETRY. THE TOP AND BOTTOM SURFACES OF THE BLOCK MUST BE FLAT AND PARALLEL TO EACH OTHER WITHIN THE LIMITS OF SIZE. THE ROD MUST BE STRAIGHT AND CYLINDRICAL WITHIN THE LIMITS OF SIZE. FORM TOLERANCES, UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED, ARE USED TO TIGHTEN THE CONTROL PROVIDED BY RULE 1. HOLES FOR A PRESS FIT: USE POSITION REGARDLESS OF FEATURE SIZE WITH A PROJECTED TOLERANCE ZONE. .001 H

ANGULARITY OF OF A HOLE TO A PLANE SURFACE. CONSIDER USING A SECONDARY DATUM. THIS IS USUALLY USED AS A REFINEMENT OF POSITION.

COAXIAL FEATURES ON ROTATING PARTS: USE CONCENTRICITY ON PARTS THAT ROTATE AT HIGH SPEED AND WHERE VIBRATION MAY BE A PROBLEM. (NOTE: CONCENTRICITY IS AN AXIS TO AXIS RELATIONSHIP AND IS DIFFICULT AND THEREFORE EXPENSIVE TO INSPECT. CONSIDER USING RUNOUT.)

STRAIGHTNESS OF AN AXIS AT MAXIMUM MATERIAL CONDITION. THIS PART MAY GO BEYOND THE BOUNDARY DEFINED BY RULE 1.

WHERE WALL THICKNESS IS CRITICAL USE POSITION AT LEAST MATERIAL CONDITION.

SYMMETRICAL FEATURES: USE SYMMETRY FOR NON COAXIAL PARTS WHERE BALANCE IS IMPORTANT. (NOTE: EXCEPT FOR THE SHAPE OF THE PART SYMMETRY AND CONCENTRICITY ARE IDENTICAL, AND THE CAUTION EXPRESSED FOR CONCENTRICITY APPLIES HERE AS WELL. CONSIDER USING POSITION.)

PROFILE TOLERANCES: THE TOLERANCE ZONE IS EVENLY DISTRIBUTED ON BOTH SIDES OF THE BASIC PROFILE UNLESS ITS LOCATION IS SHOWN BY A PHANTOM LINE ON THE DRAWING. PROFILE, WHEN USED WITH A DATUM, ACTS AS AN ORIENATION TOLERANCE. WHEN USED WITHOUT A DATUM IT ACTS AS A FORM TOLERANCE. FEATURES DEFINED BY PROFILE ARE DEFINED BY BASIC DEMENSIONS.
