However, in many instances where assembly is the prime requisite, a dependent locational symbol Indi- cating a requirement for centrality may be used to advantage, and a discussion of this point is to be found in paragraph 5-25. It should be emphasized that the independent symbol refers to total variation and LA-004 not to displacement of centerlines. This is easily understood if it is remembered that the centerline of the designated form may vary 0.002 on either side of the centerline of the da- tum form, thus allowing a total variation of A 0.004.

Figure 16 of Drawing 30-1-7 illustrates a Joint READING NOT TO EXCEED .004 requirement for concentricity and perpendicu- WHEN ROTATED 300 larity. The prime requirement is for concen- tricity of the 0.874 diameter with the pitch di- ameter specified as the datum ='3J. The secondary requirement is that the effect of lack of perpendicularity between the 0.874 diameter and the end surface [ shall be included with the eccentricity in the total variation of 0.004 which may be indicated on the dial.

-- Since there is no specific rqurement for per- - pendicularity of surface E with the pitch I diameter E , the combined requirement in- dicates that if the surfaces are concentric, then the play of the mating threads may allow sur- face M-] to be out of perpendicular with the L pitch diameter within 0.004 on the dial reading taken at the opposite end of the piece. Figure SURFACE PLATE 5-16 shows schematically the effect of each re- quirement, and of the combined requirement. Figure 17 of Drawing 30-1-7 shows the prime requirement of concentricity of the threaded counterbore with the datum counterbore, and Figure 5-13.
