TOLERANCING AND ENGINEERING STANDARDS
Tolerancing is just like written languages. It has its own standards. There are to many standards like ANSI(Inch System), ISO (Metric System) etc. List of standards: ANSI B4.1, ANSI B4.2, ISO 286, ISO 1829, ISO 2768, EN 20286, JIS B 0401. In an assembly process the degree of "clearance" or "tightness" desired between mating parts is important. In a manufacture of a machine, quality is a primary consideration. Manufacturing precision taken into the product determines its quality, its cost and selling price. Parts of a machine are designed in order to make a function. The working parts have a definite relationship with each other: free rotation, free longitudinal movement, clamping action, and permanent fixed position. Precision is the degree of accuracy necessary to ensure the functioning of a part as intended. Tolerance is the allowable variation for any given size in order to achieve a proper function.
Tolerancing Definitions
NOMINAL SIZE : The size used for general description. Example; 7/8 inch Shaft, 25mm Shaft etc. BASIC SIZE : The size used when the nominal size is converted to the decimal and from which deviation are made to produce limit dimension. Example: .8750inch shaft which is the basic size for a 7/8 inch nominal shaft.25mm nominal size which can be basic size of 24.950mm. LIMIT DIMENSION : The Lower and Upper permitted sizes for a single feature dimension. 0.500-0.506 inch where 0.500 inch is the lower limit and 0.506 inch upper limit dimensions TOLERANCE :Tolerance is the allowable variation for any given size in order to achieve a proper function. Tolerance equals the difference between lower and upper limit dimensions. Example; for 0.500-0.506 inch the tolerance would be 0.006 inch.
BILATERAL TOLERANCE : It is a way to express tolerance by using both minus and plus variations from a given size. Example;
inch. The limit dimensions are 1.120-1.130 inch. The tolerance is 0.010 inch.
UNILATERAL TOLERANCE : It is a way to express tolerance by using only minus or plus variation from a given size. Example
inch. As you can see the first case uses a minus variation.
or
inch. The first case uses a minus and plus variation.
FIT : The general term of fit to describe the range of tightness designed into parts which assemble one into another. The fit can be explained under the three categories.
-
A-CLEARANCE FIT : A type of fit in which one part fits easily into another with a resulting clearance gap. See the below example,
A clearance fit. The shaft is always smaller than the hole
Tolerance on shaft : 0.002
Tolerance on hole : 0.002
minimum clearance : 0.600 - 0.595 = 0.005 inch
maximum clearance : 0.602 - 0.593= 0.009 inch
The 0.005 clearance in for the tightest possible fit.
B-FORCE (INTERFERENCE) FIT : A type of fit in which one part must be forcibly fitted into another. See the below example
An Force (interference) fit. when the shaft is always larger in diameter than the hole parts must be assembled by
pressure or heat expansion.
Tolerance on shaft : 0.001
Tolerance on hole : 0.001
minimum clearance : 0.500 - 0.503= -0.003 in (the tightest fit 0.003 in interference)
maximum clearance : 0.501 - 0.502 = -0.001 in (the loosest fit 0.001 in interference)
Maximum clearance=Minimum interference
Minimum clearance=Maximum interference
-
C-TRANSITION FIT : A type of fit in which loosest case provides a clearance fit and the tightest case gives an interference fit. See the example below,
A transition fit exist when the maximum clearance is positive and the minimum clearance is negative
Tolerance on shaft : 0.005
Tolerance on hole : 0.005
minimum clearance : 0.500 - 0.507 = -0.007 inch
The tightest fit is 0.007 in interference.
maximum clearance : 0.505 - 0.002 = 0.503 inch
The loosest fit is 0.003 in clearance
Transition fits are used only for locating a shaft relative to a hole,
where accuracy is important but either a clearance or interference is permitted.
-
ALLOWANCE : An alternative expression for tightest possible fit, which is minimum clearance or maximum interference
Maximum allowance is 0.003.
BASIC-SHAFT SYSTEM : This is a system in which the basic size is included as one of the limit dimensions of the shaft. But it is not for the hole. As an example: for a basis size of 1.000 inch. The limit dimensions on the shaft could be 1.000 and 1.005 inch. The related hole could be 1.011 and 1.018 inch. BASIC-HOLE SYSTEM : This is a system in which the basic size appears as one of the limit dimensions of the hole. But it is not for the shaft. As an example for a basic size of 1.000 inch, the limit dimensions of the hole might be 1.000 and 1.007 inch. For the related shaft the limit dimensions could be 0.994 and 0.989 inch. MINIMUM MATERIAL CONDITION : In this condition a hole is at its largest limit dimension. A shaft is at its smallest limit dimension. This condition exists at maximum clearance or minimum interference. MAXIMUM MATERIAL CONDITION : In this condition a hole is at its smallest limit dimension. The shaft is at its largest limit dimension. This condition exists at minimum clearance or maximum interference. See example under the Force fit condition.

ISO Tolerance Systems For Limits And Fits
This standard can be described as ISO 286:1988.This standard is being described in USA as ANSI (ANSI B4.2-1978). American National Standard (ANSI B4.2-1978) describes ISO standard of metric fits and limits for mating machine parts as approved for general engineering usage. This Standard is used as an international standard for linear dimension tolerances. This ISO system is identical with the European standard (EN 20286:1993) and defines an internationally recognized system of tolerances, deviations and fits. This system has been accepted in most industrially developed countries in identical or by modifying wording system as a their national standard like Japan, British, USA (JIS B 0401, DIN ISO 286, BS EN 20286, CSN EN 20286, etc.). General terms of shaft and hole can also be taken to refer to the space contained by two parallel faces of any part, e.g. fits of keys in grooves. The most important term relating to fits and limits are showmen in the figure below;
-
Deviations from the exact dimensions are unavoidable due to the nature of manufacturing processes.
Deviation: Difference between the size and the corresponding basic size. The basic size is assigned as limits of deviation. it is same for both parts of their fits.
Lower Deviation: Difference between the min limit of part's size and corresponding basic size. It is designated "EI" for Hole, "ei" for shaft
Upper Deviation: Difference between the max limit of part's size and the corresponding basic size. It is designated "ES" for hole," es" for shaft
Fundamental Deviation: One of the deviations closest to the basic size.
For easy understanding of the "es", "ei", "ES", and "EI" and identification of their negative and positive values, the letter may be interpreted as follow;
es: Error from zero line (Basic Size) to superior size of shaft.
-
ei: Error from zero line (Basic Size) to inferior size of shaft.
ES: Error from zero line (Basic Size) to superior size of hole.
EI: Error from zero line (Basic Size) to inferior size of hole.
Tolerance Zone: A zone representing the tolerance and its position in relating to the basis size. The tolerance zone is also defined as a spherical zone limited by the upper and lower limit dimensions of the part.
Tolerance: The algebraic difference between the max and min limits on the part.
International Tolerance Grade (IT)
IT grade is a group of tolerances. Each of the tolerances of this system is marked "IT" with attached grade of accuracy (IT01, IT0, IT1 ... IT18).IT Grades reference ISO 286. The magnitude of the tolerance zone is the variation in part size. IT groups of tolerances such that tolerances for a particular IT number have the same relative level of accuracy but vary depending on the basic size. A smaller grate of IT number provides a smaller tolerance zone. The fundamental IT deviation for hole basis is designated by "H", the shaft designated by "h".
Tolerance Symboles:The tolerance symbol is established by combining the IT grade number and position letter for tolerance. Capital letter like "H" for hole, and lower case letter like "h" for shaft.

Applications with ISO 286/ANSI B4.2-1978 International Tolerance Grade.
For best fit selection for a specific applications many factors can be effective. Such as speed, temperatures, length engagement, materials, lubrications, humidity, bearing load and etc. To satisfy extreme conditions the best preferred fit must be considered. The tolerances indicated by the International Tolerance (IT) Grades are general guide to machining process given in ISO 286/ANSI B4.2-1978 showmen in the below table.

Calculation of International Tolerance Grades:
As mentioned before IT Grade have 18 standard tolerance. These IT Grades have their own numerical values for each dimater step given in the tables above. IT Grades IT01 to IT5 are the most accurate and used essetially for gauge. IT Grades IT6 to IT 16 are less accurate and are used for nonmating dimensions. International Grade can be calculated as given below;
T:International Tolerance grade in (m)
D:Geometric mean dimension in millimeters (mm)
ITG:IT Grade (a positive integer)
Also T:International Tolerance can be showmen as;
-
"i": is standard tolerance unit/factor."i" for IT5 to IT 16 values can be calculated with the formula below;
Unit tolerance in (m). To calculate D;
where, D (mm) is the geometric mean of the lower and upper diameters of a particular diameter step within which the chosen the diameter D lies. Standard Tolerance Unit/Factor the formula has parabolic relationship with the size of the products. As the size increases, the tolerance within which a part can be manufactured also increases.

i=10-3 50 +60 +0.01x63.25=1.865micron or i=0.001865mm For Shaft of f7 "i" value standard unit from the table; Tolerance=16i=16x1.865=0.030mm For Hole of H8 "i" value standard unit from the table; Tolerance=25i=25x0.001865=0.046mm
Since design based on Hole basis, the fundamental deviation of hole is zero. Fundamental deviation for Shaft;
-
=-5.5xD0.41
=-5.5x63.250.41
=-30.114 microns=0.030mm
Shaft; Higher Limit=Basic size-Fundamental Deviation=60-0.030=59.97mm Lower Limit=Higher Limit-Tolerance=59.97-0.03=59.94mm Hole; Lower Limit=Basic Size=60mm Higher Limit=Lower Limit+Tolerance=60+0.046=60.046mm
Calculation of Upper (es) and Lower (ei) Deviation For Shaft:
The deviations and fundamental tolerances provided by the ISO System. The limits of tolerance for holes or shafts are designated by the appropriate letter indicating the fundamental deviation. And Tolerance grade is dominated by followed by a suffix number. For example, if the hole deviation "H" and tolerance grade IT7,; designation would be H7, if Shaft deviation "k" and tolerance grade IT6; designation would be k6.If the basic size 50mm, tolerance designation would be 50H7 and 50k6.
The Upper and Lower deviations for Shaft are donated by "es" and "ei". The Upper and Lower deviations for Hole are donated by "ES" and "EI". The Fundamental Deviations can be calculated with the help of some formulas given below.
Calculation Fundamental Upper and Lower Deviation Of Shaft:
es=ei+IT, ei=es-IT
Calculation Fundamental Upper and Lower Deviation Of Hole:
ES=EI+IT, EI=ES-IT

ANSI Standard Limits and Fits (ANSI B4.1-1967,R1974)
ANSI, This American Standard for preferred limits and fits for cylindrical parts presents definitions of terms applying to fits between nonthreaded cylindrical and makes some recommendations on preferred sizes, fits, tolerances, and allowances for use where they areapplicable. The ANSI B4.1 charts data are provided in thousandths (.001) of an inch. ANSI can be defined ANSI metric or ANSI Inch system. ANSI decimal inch system is based on ANSI Standard (B4.1 - 1967(1979). ANSI Standard (B4.2 - 1978)metric system is based on ISO millimeter system. ANSI - American National Standards Institute. ISO is International Organization for Standardization. ANSI standard is in accord with the recommendations of American-British-Canadian (ABC) conferences up to diameter of 20 inches.The ABC proposal comprises:(a)A grade system of fundamental tolerances for diameters 0.04 inch to approximately 20 inches, the tolerance values in each grade being to the diameter by a given law of formula and each grade of tolerance being approximately related to the others in the system in a preferred number ratio (R5 series, with 60 percent increments). (a) A series of unilateral hole limits derived from the fundamental tolerances, for use with a hole basis system. (c) A series of shaft, one of these limits being determined by the allowance ( according to some technical requirement), the other being derived from it by addition or subtraction of the fundamental tolerance.(d) A selection of fits made by recommended association of certain of the holes and shaft, the selection being adequate to cover most engineering requirements.
What can be effective for selection of the fits? Many factor can be affective for selecting proper fits such as bearing loads, speed, materials, length of
-
engagement, lubrication, humidity, and temperature etc. This all affect must be taken into consideration in the selection of the fits for proper applications.
ANSI B4.1 - 1967(1979), R1974 Standard Tolerances
ANSI B4.1 standard implements 10 tolerance grades to meet the requirements of various production branches for accuracy of products. ANSI B4.1 standard defines a system of preferred fits only for basic sizes up to 19.69 inch. ANSI B4.1 system of tolerances is prescribed by the standard for basic sizes up to 200 in. ANSI B4.1 Tolerance Table provides a suitable range from which appropriate tolerance for holes and shaft can be selected. This enables the use of standard gages. Table shown below

ANSI B4.1 - 1967(1979), R1974 Standard Fit Designations
ANSI B4.1 Standard arranged fits classes in three general groups according to the field and type of usage. Standard fits are designated by means of some symbols which facilitate reference to classes of fits to get better understanding. The symbols are not intended to be shown on the manufacturing detail drawings, only sizes should be specified on the detail drawings.
1-) Running or Sliding Fits [RC]
2-) Locational Fits [LC, LT, LN]. This standard can be explained in three groups.
a-) Clearance Locational Fits [LC]
b-) Transition Locational Fits [LT]
-
c-) Interference Locational Fits [LN]
3-) Force or Shrink Fits [FN]
These letter symbols RC, LC, LT, LN, and FN are used with numbers representing the fit class. like RC4 represent class 4. One of these symbols "with two letter and one number" represent a complete fit. This fit can be interference, in and max clearance, and limits of sizes for mating parts.
1-) Running And Sliding Fits (RC):
Running and Sliding fits ranges are designated with RC1 to RC9.Throughout the range of the sizes limits of clearance for this fit are intended to provide a running performance with suitable lubrication allowance. Loosest of the class fits, used when a shaft is must move freely inside a hole or bearing, and the positioning of the shaft is not critical in this fit like sliding gears and clutch disks, pivots, running and sliding fits of shafts, guiding bushings, pistons of hydraulic machines, etc. There are nine such fits RC1 to RC9. The lower RC numbers are the tighter fits, the higher numbers are the looser fits. RC1 to RC9 Fits may be described as follows;
RC1; Close Sliding Fits: This kind of fits are intended for the accurate location of parts which must assemble without noticeable play.
RC2; Sliding Fits: This kind of fits are intended for the accurate location but with greater maximum clearance than class RC1. Parts made to this fit turn and move easily. This type is not designed for free run. Sliding fits in larger sizes may seize with small temperature changes.
RC3; Precision Running Fits: This kind of fits are about the closest fits which can be expected to run freely. Precision running fits are intended for precision work at low speed, low bearing pressures, and light journal pressures. RC3 is not suitable where noticeable temperature differences occur.
RC4; Close Running Fits: This kind of fits are mostly for running fits on accurate machinery with moderate surface speed, bearing pressures, and journal pressures where accurate location and minimum play are desired. This kind of fits also can be described as smaller clearances with higher requirements for precision fit.
-
RC5 and R6; Medium Running Fits: This kind of fits are designed for machines running at higher running speeds, considerable bearing pressures, and heavy journal pressure. This kind of fits also can be described with greater clearances with common requirements for fit precision.
RC7; Free Running Fits: This kind of fits are intended to use where accuracy is not essential. It is suitable for great temperature variations. This fits are suitable to use without any special requirements for precise guiding of shafts.
RC8 and RC9; Loose Running Fits: This kind of fits are intended for use where wide commercial tolerances may be required on the shaft. With this fits, The parts with great clearances with having great tolerances. Loose running fits exposed to effects of corrosion, contamination by dust and thermal or mechanical deformations.

All limits shown in chart below are in thousandths of an inches. Symbols H5,g5, etc. are Shaft and Hole designations used in American-British-Canadian System (ABC). Limits for Shaft and Hole are applied
-
algebraically to the Nominal (basic) size to obtain the limits of the size for the parts. All data given in bold in the chart below are in accordance with ABC agreements. The values given under the "Clearance Limits Column" represent min and max amounts of clearance resulting from application of standard tolerance limits.
