    Roundness vs diameter for Tolerance Stack

    It's okay - these are solid steel components. Definitely rigid!

    Roundness vs diameter for Tolerance Stack

    Thank you! That helps! :) So - on the drawing of the cylindrical component, should the roundness be adjusted so that the tolerance is not greater than the diameter tolerance?

    Roundness vs diameter for Tolerance Stack

    For tolerance stacking an assembly which includes a cylindrical component with both a diameter tolerance and a roundness tolerance, how do the two tolerances combine within the tolerance stack? I assume it would be best to just use whichever is largest, but opinions would be most welcome! Thanks.
