    • A.

      Pitch and depth of the knurl

    • B.

      Depth and strength of the knurl

    • C.

      Tolerance diameter before the knurl

    • D.

      Total amount of clearance after the knurl

    Correct Answer
    C. Tolerance diameter before the knurl
    Explanation
    When using press fit for knurling, it is important to include the tolerance diameter before the knurl on the print. This is because the knurling process will slightly increase the diameter of the part, and the tolerance diameter before the knurl ensures that the part will still fit properly in the assembly. Including the tolerance diameter before the knurl allows for proper clearance and ensures that the knurled part will fit correctly in the desired application.

    For fractional dimensions such as 1/8" and 1/16", the amount of tolerance on a print is

    • A.

      1/64"

    • B.

      1/16"

    • C.

      1/8"

    • D.

      1/4"

    Correct Answer
    A. 1/64"
    Explanation
    For fractional dimensions such as 1/8" and 1/16", the amount of tolerance on a print is 1/64". This means that the allowable deviation or variation from the specified dimension is 1/64 of an inch. In other words, the actual measurement of the part can be up to 1/64" smaller or larger than the specified dimension and still be considered within tolerance. This level of tolerance is smaller and more precise compared to the other options provided (1/16", 1/8", and 1/4"), indicating that the manufacturing process requires a higher level of accuracy and precision for these fractional dimensions.

      0.001 inch

    • B.

      0.010 inch

    • C.

      0.100 inch

    • D.

      0.000 inch

    Correct Answer
    B. 0.010 inch
    Explanation
    The tolerance for a dimension with a two place (X.XX) decimal is 0.010 inch. Tolerance refers to the allowable variation or deviation from the specified dimension. In this case, a dimension with a two place decimal requires a tolerance of 0.010 inch, meaning that the actual measurement can vary by up to 0.010 inch from the specified dimension.

    For angular dimensions where no tolerances is given, hold the angle to the nearest 

    • A.

      Minute

    • B.

      Second

    • C.

      Half degree

    • D.

      Whole degree

    Correct Answer
    C. Half degree
    Explanation
    When no tolerances are given for angular dimensions, it is recommended to hold the angle to the nearest half degree. This means that the angle can be rounded to the nearest 0.5 degrees. This level of precision allows for a reasonable level of accuracy without being overly specific. Holding the angle to the nearest half degree ensures that the measurement is not rounded too much, which could result in significant errors, while also avoiding unnecessary precision that may not be required for the given application.

      The direction of the material grain structure

    Correct Answer
    C. The surface pattern produced by tool marks
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "the surface pattern produced by tool marks". This means that when a material is subjected to machining or cutting processes, the tools used can leave marks or patterns on the surface. These tool marks can vary in depth, width, and direction, and they can be used to identify the type of tool that was used. Therefore, the surface pattern of a material can provide information about the machining process it has undergone.

      On the bottom of the reference line

    • C.

      On the break of the reference line

    • D.

      On the top of the reference line

    Correct Answer
    D. On the top of the reference line
    Explanation
    The welding symbol is placed on the top of the reference line to indicate that a weld needs to be placed on the other side of the part. This placement signifies that the weld symbol applies to the side opposite to where the symbol is placed. Placing the symbol on the top of the reference line is a standardized convention in welding documentation.

      Perpendicular tolerance

    Correct Answer
    D. Perpendicular tolerance
    Explanation
    A tolerance zone that is at a right angle to a datum plane is called a perpendicular tolerance. This means that the allowable deviation or variation in the specified dimension is perpendicular to the datum plane. In other words, the part or feature being measured must be within a specific range of perpendicularity to the datum plane in order to meet the tolerance requirements. This type of tolerance is commonly used in engineering and manufacturing to ensure proper alignment and fit of components.
