Foreword IS0 (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (IS0 member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through IS0 technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. IS0 collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IECI on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for approval before their acceptance as International Standards by the IS0 Council. They are approved in accordance with IS0 procedures requiring at least 75 % approval by the member bodies voting. International Limits

Introduction All features on component parts always have a size and a geometrical shape. For the deviation of size and for the deviations of the geometrical characteristics (form, orientation and location) the function of the part requires limitations which, when exceeded, impair this function. The tolerancing on the drawing should be complete to ensure that the elements of size and geometry of all features are controlled, i.e. nothing shall be implied or left to judgement in the workshop or in the inspection department. The use of general tolerances for size and geometry simplifies the task of ensuring that this prerequisite is met.

This part of IS0 2768 is intended to simplify drawing indications and specifies general geometrical tolerances to control those features on the drawing which have no respective individual indication. It specifies general geometrical tolerances in three tolerance classes. This part of IS0 2768 mainly applies to features which are produced by removal of material. Its application to features manufactured by other processes is possible; however, special examination is required to ascertain whether the customary workshop accuracy lies within the general geometrical tolerances specified in this part of IS0 2768.

When selecting the tolerance class, the respective customary workshop accuracy has to be taken into consideration. If smaller geometrical tolerances are required or larger geometrical tolerances are permissible and more economical for any individual feature, such tolerances should be indicated directly in accordance with IS0 1101 (see clause A.2).
General geometrical tolerances apply to all geometrical tolerance characteristics, excluding cylindricity, profile of any line, profile of any surface, angularity, coaxiality, positional tolerances and total run-out.

In this case the general tolerances for angular dimensions in accordance with IS0 2766-l do not apply to right angles (W’), which are implied but not indicated, because this part of IS0 2766 specifies general tolerances on perpendicularity.
For general tolerances on circular run-out, the bearing surfaces shall be taken as the datum if they are designated as such. Otherwise, for circular radial run-out, the longer of the two features shall be taken as the datum; if the features are of equal nominal length, either may be taken as the datum. Table

A.1 General tolerances should be indicated on the drawing by reference to this part of IS0 2766 in accordance with clause 6.
d) those features remaining, which have individually indicated geometrical tolerances, will, for the most part, be those controlling features for which the function requires relatively small tolerances and which therefore may cause special effort in the production - this will be helpful for production planning and will assist quality control services in their analysis of inspection requirements;
A.2
Above a certain tolerance value, which corresponds to the customary workshop accuracy, there is usually no gain in manufacturing economy by enlarging the tolerance. In any event, workshop machinery and the usual workmanship normally do not manufacture features with greater deviations. For example, a feature of 25 mm I!I 0,l mm diameter by 66 mm long manufactured in a workshop with a customary accuracy equal to or finer than IS0 276%mH contains the geometrical deviations well within 0,l mm for circularity, 0,l mm for straightness of surface elements, and 0,l mm for circular radial run-out (the values given have been taken from this part of IS0 2766). Specifying tolerances would be of no benefit in this particular workshop. However, if, for functional reasons, a feature requires a smaller tolerance value than the “general tolerances”, then that feature should have the smaller tolerance indicated individually adjacent to the particular feature. This type of tolerance falls outside the scope of general tolerances.

In cases where the function of a feature allows a geometrical tolerance equal to or larger than the general tolerance values, this should not be individually indicated, but should be stated on the drawing as described in clause 6. This type of tolerance allows full use of the concept of general geometrical tolerancing. There will be “exceptions to the rule” where the function allows a larger tolerance than the general tolerances, and the larger tolerance will provide a gain in manufacturing economy. In these special cases, the larger geometrical tolerance should be indicated individually adjacent to the particular feature, e.g. the circularity tolerance of a large and thin ring.

The tolerance the function allows is often greater than the general tolerance. The function of the part is, therefore, not always impaired when the general tolerance is (occasionally) exceeded at any feature of the workpiece.

Cylindricity
(see note 2 in 5.1.3)
The combined effect of the general tolerances of circularity, straightness and parallelism is, for geometrical reasons, smaller than the sum of the three tolerances since there is also a certain limitation by the size tolerance. However, for the sake of simplicity, in order to decide whether the envelope requirement E or an individual cylindricity tolerance is to be indicated, the sum of the three tolerances can be taken into account.

The permissible deviation of the diameter is indicated directly on the drawing; the general tolerance on circularity is equal to the numerical value of the diameter tolerance.

EXAMPLE 2 (see figure 8.21
B.4
The general tolerances in accordance with the indication IS0 275B-mK apply. The permissible deviations for the diameter of 25 mm are +0,2 mm. These deviations lead to the numerical value of 0,4 mm which is greater than the value of 0,2 mm given in table 4; the value of 0,2 mm, therefore, applies for the circularity tolerance.
Parallelism
(see 5.2.2)
Depending on the shapes of the deviations of the features, the parallelism deviation is limited by the numerical value of the size tolerance (see figure B.3) or by the numerical value of the straightness or flatness tolerance (see figure B.4).
