Where design parameters permit the above tolerances should be increased by 50% |
Wall Thickness Tolerance
Special tolerances apply to wall thicknesses. The normal tolerance to be allowed is ± .008" (±0.20mm)
Large plain wall sections, above 75sq inches (500sq cm), should incorporate a tolerance of ±0.012" (±0.3mm)
Straightness/Flatness Tolerance
±0.004" (±0.10mm) per inch (per 25mm) excluding localised wax pattern depressions.
Angular Tolerance
±1/2°
Surface Finish
Typical surface finish - 80/100 microinches (2.0/2.5 micrometres). A finer surface finish is generally attainable when specifically requested.
Geometric Tolerances
Are dependant on the casting configuration and/or alloy specification, and would be discussed on an individual basis at the quotation stage.
