I would like to properly apply a geometric tolerance that aligns my metal insert mold part to the center of the hole in the plastic part. I'm not sure if I need the "Concentricity" or "Runout" tolerance. I would like the metal part to be within .010" of the axis on the hole in the plastic part. Can anyone give me some advice? Thank-you.

Here's a picture of my part...

 
How about a positional tolerance? It should accomplish what you ask.
 
I agree with position. I have had this identical application, and used a true position FCF.
 
Ahh..yeah. I didn't think about the position tolerance. Thanks everyone. That's what I'll go with.
