Engineering Tolerances Explained: How to Read Limits, Fits & Stack-Up
A drawing that says 25 ±0.1 is not asking for 25 mm — it is defining the range a part must land in to be accepted. This guide covers the four tolerance notations you will see on real drawings, what ISO fit codes like 25H7/g6 mean in millimetres, the difference between clearance, transition and interference fits, worst-case vs RSS stack-up, and how to pick a tolerance a workshop can actually hold.
