    Perpendicularity

    This may sound very basic, but I need to be sure and I can not find an example in the spec. (ASME Y14.5M 1994).

    Cylindrical Tolerance Zone

    A customer has submitted numerous drawings where ASME Y14.5M-1994 is referenced. They use the Ø symbol for a cylindrical tolerance where a plane feature being controlled. I would like to know if the Ø symbol appropriate. Example: Perpendicular | Ø .005 |A Datum A is a cylindrical feature...
