General Tolerance Specification
Rev. C
SCOPE This specification defines the general tolerances in the Imperial and Metric systems to be used on GE Transportation parts and products. For cast and forged p arts, see the 84A226035AB. Unless otherwise explicitly specified on a drawing for a particular dimension or characteristic, or in the title block of this drawing (only for legacy drawings), these general tolerances shall be applied to all new drawings created after the revision A issue date of this specification. specification. It shall also apply to all drawings that are formally reissued after the revision A issue date of this specification. Where the primary dimensions on the drawing are Imperial, the Imperial tolerances in this document shall apply. Where the primary dimensions on the drawing are Metric, the Metric Metric tolerances in this document shall apply. 1.1. ORDER OF PRECEDENCE The following order of precedence define how tolerances shall be applied: 1.1.1.1. 1.1.1.2. 1.1.1.3.
1.1.1.4. 1.1.1.5.
2.
Explicit Tolerances – Tolerances – any tolerances on the drawing face take precedence over any of document or instruction invoked. Industry Standards – Standards – Items such as sheet shee t metal thickness, which are driven by other industry standards (such as ASME or ASTM) specified on the drawing face. Implicit Tolerances – Tolerances – any characteristics on the drawing face that do not carry explicit tolerances shall derive their their tolerances from this this document. This excludes items such as thickness, thread creation, etc which shall be driven from other specifications (ANSI, ASA, etc) which which regulate these features. GE Standards – Any – Any internal GE standard invoked on the drawing face (such as the 84A208000 Wiring Standard). Under-defined Under-defined - Any characteristics without a tolerance from any of the previous points shall be considered under-defined and GET Engineering consultation shall be sought.

While no reference to the document shall be made, the values used in Table 4a align with the ISO 2768-1 (as released in 2009). The values used in Table 4b are the Imperial equivalent to Table 4a. The default for all drawings shall be the Medium designation un less another is desired by Engineering. To invoke another classification, simply change the callout on the drawing from a –m to the desired designation. To restate, if the Default Tolerance on the drawing face reads “84A226035” and does not carry a designation then that shall be considered 84A226035-m. Recommendations: Fine - No known application at GET to date. Medium - Machined components. Coarse - Assemblies of moving parts. Very Coarse - Sheet metal, pipe, non-critical assemblies. For cast and forged parts, see the 84A226035AB. When a new drawing is created, the following shall be the default tolerance class applied unless otherwise specified by engineering. Defaults by business: Locomotive – vc Control – vc Off Highway (OHV) – vc Energy Storage – vc Locomotive Engine & Generator Sets – m Marine Engine – m Wind – m Propulsion – c 5.
ANGULAR DIMENSION TOLERANCES All angles shall be +/- 1°.

SURFACE TEXTURE TOLERANCES There are no general tolerances for surface texture. Surface texture tolerances, when required, shall be explicitly documented on the drawing in accordance with the ASME Y14.36 - 1996. Surface textures are typically documented a s follows:
xxx
For Metric xxx is the micrometer measurement. The default maximum finish value is 6.3. For Imperial xxx is the microinch measurement. The default maximum finish value is 250. Author: Engineering Issued: GET Engineering

As for tolerancing, this finish value shall be considered a maximum value. In that if a finish of 125 micro-inches is specified then the roughest the part may be is 125 microinches but it could be smoother. Where it is desired to strictly limit the range, this shall be explicitly listed on the drawing. The following table provides a correspondence between metric arithmetical mean deviation (Ra), its Imperial equivalent, and the roughness grade number. These are not direct conversions but rather should be used as similar to. 50µm is similar to 2,000 µin which is also similar to N12.

CORNERS, BURRS, UNDERCUTS
ITEM (A) Chamfer (B) Break Corner
(C) Sharp Corner Radius Corner - (R) or Fillet - (F)
(H) Under-cut (K) Part off Thread Undercut
DRAFTING AND MANUFACTURING PRACTICE Chamfer tolerances should be specified on the drawing face or per 84A226035. Unless otherwise stated on the drawing, break all corners on machined diameters or faces with a chamfer or radius.
Diameter Chamfer Up to 1" 0.005 to 0.02 Over 1" to 2" 0.005 to 0.04 Over 2" 0.005 to 0.06 Must be stated on drawing as "Sharp Corner" and have a maximum radius of 0.005. Specify on drawings only when a chamfer is not acceptable. Unless otherwise specified, radii of corners to be: no radii specified -- See "B" radii - specify on drawing = ± .02 Specified per 84A226035. End projections on part-off cuts must be removed unless otherwise specified. Undercut diameter must be shown when thread is carried up to head undercut.
8. TORQUE Torque tolerance shall be +/- 5% from the nominal value specified on the drawing. Where a torque specification is used, that document shall take precedence over this one and +/- 5% shall only apply where that document does not cover the full engineering definition. Any torqueing requirements not specified on the drawing shall be considered under-defined. 9.

All applicable manufacturing best practices shall be used unless prohibitive or otherwise specified on the drawing. Manufacturing best practices can be found in the 84A226035AC. 9.2. WIRING Wiring best practices can be found in the 84A208000. Any drawing detailing wiring design / routing shall follow this document. 10. APPLIED PRACTICES AND STANDING INSTRUCTIONS While these documents shall not be used on the drawing face any longer as default tolerances, they can be used to derive what the tolerance was / should be if the values in this document are not acceptable for a particular feature or part – they are reference only. In that instance, it is recommended to derive what the tolerance would be based on the applied practice and then explicitly define that value on the drawing face. A list of known documents is shown here. Note that the standards listed were the most commonly used; this is not an exhaustive list.
