Summary

Circular runout controls variation at individual cross-sections of a surface as it rotates about a datum axis.

Definition

For each cross-section, the surface must stay within a radial tolerance zone as the part is rotated about the datum axis.

When to use it

Use circular runout to control roundness and coaxiality at specific sections of a rotating surface relative to a datum axis.

Examples

Example: Runout relative to datum axis
Circular runout applied to a cylindrical surface with datum A as the axis.

Common mistakes

  • Missing the primary datum reference.
  • Adding a tertiary datum reference.
  • Applying runout to a pattern.
