Runout or Total Runout?
Runout or Total Runout?
(OP)
Hi
Please see the attached drawing its a valve bonnet bore
Why cant we use total run out on both the ends or circular runout on both sides....
UV packing comes on the Left side and stem will be passing through the bore
there are two cases the stem may slide up and down or it may rotate please help me with this
the standard followed is ISO....

(Also, it's interesting that you mention ISO, yet the numbers seem to be inches.)

Total runout checks the "wobble" effect of one complete tracing of the entire cylinder, meaning that the indicator travels longitudinally as the thing rotates (think of a spiral).
An easy way to say it: Circular runout is two-dimensional and total runout is three-dimensional. If something passes total runout, it will automatically pass circular runout of the same tolerance.
Now, I don't know why this print uses the different symbols at each end. It depends mainly upon the function of the part. Also, the ease of inspection may play a role in choosing the symbols (particularly in this case because the datum is a combined axis through both ends of the part, which can be tricky).

The end with the runout symbol interfaces with a short press fit (if that) of a bushing and packing. I see that the shorter section doesn't even list a diameter tolerance, indicating that the size and location are unimportant.
Given that one surface is not very long compared to the other, it's not clear why the compound reference is used. I would have given the long surface a position tolerance to the mating flange and a cylindricity control for the press fit and then a total runout tolerance for the other bushing and packing, or just a positional tolerance as runout by itself is a poor overall form control.
Beyond that I'm confused because the section image of the valve is very little like the section of the drawing.
