Tolerance is used to specify by how much a dimension can vary. Geometric tolerancing is a way to show maximum allowable deviations of form, profile, orientation, location, and runout of a feature.
The first of two mandatory symbol frames contains a symbol that represents the geometric characteristic to which a tolerance is being applied, such as form, orientation, or runout. Form tolerances control straightness, flatness, circularity, cylindricity, and profiles of lines and surfaces.The second mandatory frame contains the tolerance value. Where applicable, the tolerance value is preceded by a diameter symbol and followed by a material condition symbol.For a tolerance frame with two tolerance values, the second compartments contains the value of Tolerance 1 and is followed by a third, identical compartment that holds the value of Tolerance 2. Other (optional) compartments commonly contain a pair of symbols each. These are a datum reference letter and a material condition symbol.
