ANSI And ISO Geometric Tolerancing Symbols


There are several standards available worldwide to describe the symbols and the rules. These are American Society of Mechanical Engineers, ASME Y14.5M-2009,  (GD&T - Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing) and International Organization for Standardization, ISO/TC 213, (GPS - Geometrical Product Specification) and ISO/TC 10 Technical Product Documentation (see the ISO GPS Specifications and verification List). The ISO (GPS) standards are typically only address a single topic at a time.ISO/TC 213 is a technical committee that standardizes tolerancing and related metrological practices. ASME Y14.5M standard has the advantage of providing a fairly complete set of standards for GD & T in one document.
