16
Q

The hole is to be larger (+) than the shaft

A

Positive allowance

17
Q

When the hole is smaller (-) than the shaft

A

Negative allowance

18
Q

The term fit describes

A

The tightness or looseness between two mating parts

19
Q

Fit types (3)

A

Interference fit
Clearance fit
Transition fits

20
Q

Interference fit is

A

The total tolerances do not exceed the allowance (negative allowance)

21
Q

Clearance fit has a

A

Positive allowance

22
Q

Transition fits

A

Have negative allowance but the total tolerances exceed the allowance

23
Q

An interference fit is when the

A

Smallest shaft is larger than the largest hole

24
Q

Clearance fit is when

A

The largest shaft will fit into the smallest hole (mmc)

25
Q

A

Transition fit

26
Q

Standard measuring temperature is
