• Straightness is the
condition where all the
points on a surface or
an axis are in a straight
line
• A straightness
tolerance specifies a
zone within which the
surface or axis must lie
STRAIGHTNESS
ROUNDNESS OF A CYLINDER
• Roundness or circularity is the condition of a
cylindrical surface in which all points on the surface
intersected by any plane perpendicular to a common
axis equidistant from the axis.
• CIRCULARITY
• Or Roundness tolerance specifies a zone
bounded by two concentric circles within which
the measured surface must lie
CIRCULARITY of A SPHERE
• The Periphery at any cross section passing
through a common center must be within
the specified tolerance of size and must be
between two concentric circles
CYLINDRICITY
• Is a condition of a line,
center line, axis or surface
at a right angle to a datum
plan or axis.
• Perpendicularity tolerance
specifies one of the
following:
PERPENDICULARITY
• 1. A zone defined by 2 parallel planes perpendicular
to a datum plane or axis. In the example shown,
• The surface of the feature must lie within this zone
which is 0.15mm wide and at right angles to datum A.
• 2. A zone defined by 2 parallel planes perpendicular to
the datum axis.
• In this example, the axis of the hole must lie within the
zone which is 0.3mm wide and at right angles to
datum axis A. The feature axis must also be within the
tolerance of location.
