ISO 7168, DIN ISO 7168 - F, M, G, SG Tolerances

ISO 7168 - 2 comes from DIN ISO 7168 - 1, which is a general dimensional tolerance standard. This
standard mainly divided the tolerances as four degrees as f, m, g and sg. Although it is a little coarse, but
it can be applicable for most of dimensional tolerance for iron, steel and aluminum castings. Normally this
standard is applicable for indicating the unspecified tolerances of machining dimensions.

1. "F" degree means "fine", so it is the highest tolerance degree for the dimensions. So, the manufacturers
should take more care to these dimensions, normally, the CNC centers and numerically controlled
machining tools will be necessary.
2. "M" degree means "medium", so it is lower than "F" degree. Normal controlled machining tools can
meet the tolerance requirements. But rough castings or rough machining will not reach this level.
3. "G" degree means "coarse", which is from German word "grob". Rough machining can meet the
requirements, and moreover, some rough castings made by some precision casting processes can also
meet the tolerance, such as die casting and vacuum investment casting.
4. "SG" degree means "very coarse", which is from German word " sehr grob". This is most coarse degree
in this standard, so most rough machining can meet the requirements, but only some precision castings
can reach this level, it is still too strict for most of sand casting process.

As for the specific permissible deviations for linear dimensions, external radii and chamfer heights, please
refer our article DIN 7168.
