form

¸ Form Flatness Controls the flatness of a surface in relation to its own perfect form

Controls the form of a revolved surface in relation to its own

´ Form Circularity
perfect form by independent cross sections

³ Form Cylindricity Like circularity, but applies simultaneously to entire surface

Profile of a Controls size and form of a feature. In addition it controls the

º Profile
Surface location and orientation when a datum reference frame is used.

Controls the orientation of a feature which is nominally

¼ Orientation Perpendicularity
perpendicular to the primary datum of its datum reference frame

Controls orientation of a feature at a specific angle in relation to

² Orientation Angularity
the primary datum of its datum reference frame

Controls orientation of a feature which is nominally parallel to the

· Orientation Parallelism
primary datum of its datum reference frame

Controls the location and orientation of a feature in relation to its
