🔹
What does "dimensional tolerance" mean in this specification table?
Dimensional tolerance refers to the allowable deviation from the specified length and width measurements. For example, a tolerance of ±0.1 mm means the actual dimension can be up to 0.1 mm larger or smaller than the stated size, ensuring consistent fit and performance in precision applications.
🔹
Why do larger sizes have wider dimensional tolerances?
As the size of the part increases, minor variations in the manufacturing process have a proportionally greater effect on the absolute dimension. Therefore, larger sizes such as 150×150 mm or 200×200 mm are assigned wider tolerances (e.g., ±0.3 to ±0.5 mm) to account for these natural manufacturing variations while still meeting quality standards.
🔹
Can I order a thickness that is not listed in the standard thickness options?
Yes. The standard thickness options listed in the table represent the most commonly stocked configurations. Custom thicknesses may be available depending on the material and minimum order quantity. Please contact our sales or technical team to discuss your specific requirements.
🔹
What is the minimum available size listed in the specification table?
The smallest standard size listed is 10×10 mm, available in thicknesses of 0.5 mm, 1.0 mm, and 2.0 mm, with a dimensional tolerance of ±0.1 mm and a thickness tolerance of ±0.05 to ±0.1 mm. This size is suitable for micro-precision applications requiring tight dimensional control.
🔹
How are thickness tolerances different from dimensional tolerances?
Dimensional tolerances apply to the length and width (the flat plane dimensions) of the part, while thickness tolerances apply to the vertical depth or height measurement. Both are critical for ensuring proper assembly and functionality, but they are controlled through different aspects of the manufacturing process.
🔹
Are custom sizes outside the listed range available upon request?
Yes, custom sizes beyond the standard range (10×10 mm to 200×200 mm) can be manufactured upon request, subject to technical feasibility and minimum order quantities. Tolerances for non-standard sizes will be evaluated and confirmed on a case-by-case basis by our engineering team.
