Basics of ISO 286 fits: Understanding the standards
The DIN EN ISO 286 is an international standard that defines the ISO tolerance system for fits and tolerances. It applies to sizes from 0 mm to 3150 mm and is based on the basic tolerances and tolerances of the ISO tolerance system. An online tolerance calculator can help to apply these standards and calculate precise fits and tolerances.
Within this standard there are different types of fits and tolerances, namely Gamefits, crossingfun and Excessfits. Each type of fit has specific requirements and applications that are set out in DIN 7157. Selecting the correct fit type is critical to the successful design and assembly of components. The fit calculator helps to do this.
The tolerances in DIN EN ISO 286 are through 20 degrees of tolerance which specify numerical values for the tolerance range. This enables designers to calculate fits (upper and lower dimensions) and tolerances with high precision and to ensure that their designs comply with international standards such as ISO 286-2.
Frequently asked questions
What is a fit?
A fit is a ratio of two tolerance-affected workpieces (the tolerances) that have an identical nominal dimension but different tolerance fields in size and position. For example, permissible actual dimensions, i.e. the upper and lower dimensions, of shafts and holes to be connected to one another are defined using fits. Fits and tolerances are defined in DIN ISO 286 1:2010 and DIN ISO 286 2:2010. The following fits exist:
- Within the clearance fit the maximum dimension of the shaft is smaller than the minimum dimension of the bore.
- Within the interference fit or interference fit, the minimum dimension of the shaft is larger than the maximum dimension of the bore.
- The transition fit depends on the actual dimensions and is either a clearance or an interference fit.
What fit is H7?
The fit "H7" refers to a tolerance range for holes in mechanical engineering. The "H" stands for a basic hole with a lower dimensional tolerance of zero. The number "7" indicates the specific tolerance field. An H7 fit provides a smooth fit for shafts that allows the shaft to slide into the bore without much resistance.
What 3 tolerances are there?
There are three main tolerances when it comes to fits and technical drawings:
- Basic tolerances refer to general deviations that are permitted in manufacturing processes. They are usually given in table form for different tolerance classes.
- Form tolerances describe the permissible deviation of a component from the ideal shape, for example roundness, straightness, flatness, cylindricity, profile of a line and profile of a surface.
- Location or position tolerances define the permissible deviation of the actual position of a component from the theoretical ideal position, for example parallelism, perpendicularity, symmetry and coaxiality.
Depending on the context and level of detail, additional tolerance types and subcategories may exist.
How can you calculate tolerance?
Special calculators based on ISO 286-1 and ISO 286-2 are often used for this purpose and provide precise results by entering nominal diameters and tolerance designations. Here are basic steps to calculate the tolerance:
- Determine that nominal dimension: This is the desired dimension specified in technical drawings or specifications.
- Determine that upper and lower limit: These are the maximum and minimum dimensions that are acceptable for the component.
Calculate the tolerance:
- Upper dimension = Upper limit – nominal measurement
- Lower dimension = Nominal measurement – lower limit
There are different tolerance classes and standards that can vary from industry to industry. Some standards, such as ISO or DIN, provide tolerance tables for different tolerance classes that can be selected depending on accuracy requirements.
