Hello All,

New to the forum and would just like some other opinion on this subject. I have specified a hole tolerance to accept a bearing, which is a 20.0 H7 +0 / +0.021 the centre position is defined by GD&T position and datum references, the hole depth is around 20mm. The selected manufacturer is asking for a circularity tolerance which confuses me somewhat as in my opinion the H7 tolerance accommodates this as it is a relatively tight tolerance and doesn't really allow for any significant circularity runout.....if I were to add circularity a tolerance of 0.01 would be required to have any effect due to the H7 tolerance.

Interested to know others opinions on this situation.

Thanks - James
 
I have one additional follow up question (in top of the previous one related to circularity)

If the drawing states :
"20.0 H7 +0 / +0.021" for size and ISO 2768-mK
(no ISO 2768-mK-E and no ISO286-2)
then how do we know if envelope requirement is default or not?

What are the factors that tell us the envelope requirement is enforced?

Would be a difference between calling out ISO 2768-mK-E and the original indicated standard ( ISO2768-mK)?
I personally don't see any.

If there is, which one?

When it comes to the allowable amount of circularity tolerance, I don't see any difference too. In both cases the maximum allowable circularity error is 0.021 because this is what ISO 2768-2:1989 explicitly says in para. 5.1.2 (see my previous post).

There is, however, a significant difference when it comes to the size of the worst-case envelope that the feature cannot violate.

In the 'ISO 2768-mK' case, that size is not determinable. Although one can find the extreme sizes of the enveloping circles in individual 2D cross-sections according to the illustration below (caution: the illustration is for a shaft, not for a hole)...

... the size of the enveloping 3D cylinder is still not determinable.

In the 'ISO 2768-mK-E' case, the size of the of the enveloping 3D cylinder simply equals to MMS (Maximum Material Size), which is 20.

If no Envelope requirement, why the "default" circularity cannot be 0.021 and an extra approx. 30%= 0.0273...

[...]

Pmarc,
What I am doing wrong in my thought process? I have a "shortcut", but not sure where?:):)

greenimi,
Does the underlined part of my reply to Kedu answer your question?
 
pmarc,

Yes, it does. Thank you very much.
I am just trying to find my way into the ISO world (labyrinth)
 
Pmarc,

Thank you for your answer.

May I ask, why the size of the worst case envelope ( the inner boundary if this term is correct) is not determinable?
If we take / combine (maybe even add) the general tolerance for straightness per table 1 from ISO 2768-2 meaning 0.1mm (since the OP said the hole is 20mm depth) and
use greenimi's 30% for circularity ( in each individual 2D cross-section)
then why
0.0273+ 0.1 = 0.1273 is not a good approximation for the worst case envelope?

Thank you to clarify this point of my own missunderstanding.


 
Sometimes I can't see the forest for the trees, so I made a small mistake ---- as I was too focused on the combination of the form errors----

The inner bounday or the worst-case envelope would be:
20mm - (0.0273+ 0.1 = 0.1273) = 19.8727

Is 19.8727 a good approximation for the worst case envelope?


 
Kedu,
Your question helped me realize that by saying that in the "ISO 2768-mK" case the 3D boundary is not determinable I made a really simple mistake. I just forgot that ISO 2768-2 defines general tolerances for straightness. [hammer] My apologies.

Having said that, I think that for circularity you would just have to use the size tolerance tolerance value, and not the size tolerance value increased by 30%.
 
pmarc,

You have to do this [hammer] to me too. Why?
Because my "30% added circularity" is valid only in the case of no circularity/ roundness requirement.
(and not valid in this case since roundness is imposed by ISO 2768-2-mK)

If no ISO 2768 is shown, (but only size dimension), then the "built-in" roundness control, in the absence of any other form control could be approximated to an extra "30%"

Am I correct now? [bow]

Per pmarc looks like ISO had a very serious configuration management issue



Pmarc,
Do you know if this issue still exist or has been solved in the meantime, with the new revisions of ISO286-1 and ISO286-2?
 
It has been brought to my attention that I made a mistake in one of my previous posts:

When I said 30% extra circularity I meant the following: If a feature is dimensioned for size and location/position to some DRF (with no ISO 2768 invoked), size limits alone provide roundness control equivalent to approx. 30% of the nominal diameter/nominal size value (and not 30% of the size tolerance value as I mistakenly specified in my previous post). So, in the absence of any other form control, there is a “built-in” roundness requirement of 6mm. (20*0.3=6mm)

Disclaimer: this 30% (found in an ISO training material) is a value that is largely disputed and discussed (some GDT’s experts show it at 15% and others at a value way bigger than 30% as debated in this thread:



Therefore, in the OP’s case (which invoked ISO2768-mK) and following kedu's calculation method, I would say that the inner boundary is
20mm - 0.021(size/circularity) -0.1 (straightness) = 19.879mm

This is probably, the GO gage size to check the combo value of 20.0 H7 when ISO2768-mK is invoked (GO gage is suppose to check if it’s no material where not suppose to be material)

Regarding kedu’s latest inquiry about the ISO’s configuration management issue, I prefer to leave that to the ISO’s experts (maybe pmarc could chime in), as I don’t want to make another mistake….

Have a great weekend.
 
Others may have covered this, but if this is a ball or roller bearing the hole roundness and circularity are pretty much independent of size.

A decent bearing catalog's engineering section will make that clear.
