Sheet Metal Fabrication Tolerances

Leave a Comment

Sheet metal tolerancing is a common topic of discussion we have with design engineers and OEMs looking to develop and source new custom parts. Understanding what tolerances your sheet metal supplier can maintain leads to better collaboration and design for manufacturability (DFM).

Here are some of our standard sheet metal tolerances. Tighter tolerances may be achieved as design and materials allow:

Measurement
Hole to Hole± 0.005 inches
Edge to Hole± 0.008 inches
Fold to Hole± 0.010 inches
Edge to Edge± 0.008 inches
Fold to Edge± 0.010 inches
Fold to Fold± 0.015 inches
Hole Size± 0.003 inches
Angularity± 1 degree

Using state of the art equipment and techniques, we can achieve tight tolerances and high accuracy for your parts. Shoot us a call or email if you’d like to know more.
