Most companies use the ASME Y14.5 standard for their GD&T callouts. The company I used to work for switched to ISO last year because they did a lot of business globally. It drove the designers to rethink some of their designs and tolerancing callouts.

Have you read faq731-376 to make the best use of Eng-Tips Forums?
What exactly is ISO 2768-mk in regards to tolerancing. I have a part drawing from Finland and it only lists that standard for dimensions without tolerances.I have been unable to find any specifics.
I have a copy of the spec at work. The -mk defines the tolerance classes used for different aspects. I think the m specifies a medium tolerance class for linear dimensions. In ISO tolerancing, the size of the part effects the tolerance. A 25mm dimension on a part has a tighter tolerance than a 600mm dimension within the same class.
"Wildfires are dangerous, hard to control, and economically catastrophic."
looslib is correct; but the tolerances per ISO 2786 also define the tolerances of angles and some GD&T's.
That standard has 2 parts. I recommend that you buy a copy of it and read it before you start to manufacture the parts.
