Why Do You Need the ISO 2768 General Tolerances PDF?

Having a PDF version of this standard on your desktop or tablet is essential for three reasons:

  1. Immediate Reference: Engineers and machinists need to quickly check tolerance values (e.g., 0.5 mm for a 30 mm length) without flipping through heavy textbooks.
  2. Workshop Clarity: A printed or digital PDF can be posted on the shop floor to ensure that all operators understand the default tolerances.
  3. Supplier Communication: When outsourcing parts, you can simply write "ISO 2768-mK" on your drawing, and your supplier will use the PDF standard to interpret it.

Part 2: Geometrical Tolerances (ISO 2768-2)

While Part 1 deals with "size" (how long or wide something is), Part 2 deals with "geometry" (flatness, straightness, perpendicularity, etc.).

If a drawing indicates compliance with ISO 2768-2, features are automatically toleranced for: Iso 2768 — General Tolerances (PDF) — Detailed

  • Straightness and Flatness
  • Circularity and Cylindricity
  • Parallelism, Perpendicularity, and Symmetry
  • Run-out

The tolerance classes for geometry are designated by letters:

  • H: Standard precision (common).
  • K: Medium precision.
  • L: Low precision (coarse).

Note: Specific tables for H, K, and L values relate the nominal size to the allowable geometric deviation in millimeters. Table 5: General Tolerances for Perpendicularity | Range


Indicating the Standard on a Drawing

To apply these tolerances, a note must be placed in the title block or near the drawing title. Since the classes for Part 1 and Part 2 are different letters, they must be indicated clearly.

Example:

ISO 2768-mK

  • m indicates Medium tolerance for linear dimensions (Part 1).
  • K indicates K class tolerance for geometrical features (Part 2).

If only linear tolerances are required, you may simply write: ISO 2768-m.
