ISO 13920 tolerances
The standard provides general tolerances for weldments using four classes for linear/angular dimensions and four classes for shape/position. Class selection follows function, not a desire for “maximum precision”, and applies only where the drawing does not state an individual requirement.

The standard provides general tolerances for weldments using four classes for linear/angular dimensions and four classes for shape/position. Class selection follows function, not a desire for “maximum precision”, and applies only where the drawing does not state an individual requirement.
Are the selected classes functionally justified, achievable by the fabrication process and unambiguously measurable in a defined product condition?
The actual limit is read from the table for the class and dimensional range.
Assembly- or safety-critical features need individual tolerances.
