Din tolerances on an ASME drawing?

Din tolerances on an ASME drawing?

Din tolerances on an ASME drawing?

(OP)
My boss insists that there is a DIN tolerance standard that will cover exactly the (foam) parts we are having made, I have no idea how to call out a din tolerance standard on an asme drawing. Normally Y14.5 2009 GD&T.
Have you guys run across any of these and/or have any examples?
my attempts at a google search aren't coming up w/ much. I worked w/ an austrian guy once, maybe on linked-in...

My gut shot is going to be to blurb a note "5...,6. tolerances according to DIN16901 Series 130"

RE: Din tolerances on an ASME drawing?

You basically answered your own question.

Essentially DIN 16901 is general telerance standard, so you still can specify tolerances on your drawing as well.
Your note in this case will read: "Untoleranced dimensions per DIN 16901 Series 130" (If that's the right series for your material)

Please note that DIN 16901 was recently withdrawn and no longer active. It is replaced with DIN 16742. Your boss may consider buying a copy so you guys can study it together.
