Fran the foregoingit will k seen that & differen~ betweenlimitsin each

generalrule. Bxever,the minimumdifferen~s for si~s below 0.25 in. are
equal b the minor diamtir tolerancesgiven in tables39 and 40 in ASME
B1.1-1989for lengtheof engagementto and includingO.33D. i%r lengthsof

are adjusted
sc that the differencebtween limits is never less than 0.0040 in.
