the allowable deviation from a standard size; the total amount by which a specific dimension may vary; thus, the tolerance is the difference between the maximum and minimum limits.
Some industrial plants and railroads, as sellers, and some consumers, as buyers, have established policies which allow for tolerances established so as to eliminate adjustments for slight variations in weights between origin and destination. Weight tolerance policies on the part of a seller, for example, might allow for adjustments in net weight settlement only if the destination weight on a shipment exceeds origin weight by 1,000# or more. A tolerance policy by a consumer might accept origin weights only if a variation of more than 500# exists. The details of weight tolerance policies are simple, but become complicated if and when both seller and buyer have tolerance policies which are not readily compatible with each other.

In accordance with AAMA/ANSI, the tolerance for all dimensions 6 feet and under is (+/-) 1/16†and (+/-) 1/8†for those in excess of 6 feet. Milgardâ€(tm)s self-imposed standard is (+/-) 1/16†in both cases. No tolerance is established for diagonal measurements.

The permitted deviation from a specified dimension or weight, usually expressed as 'plus' or 'minus' on that quantity.
The allowable variation from actual specifications permitted in the manufacturing operation.
The degree of permissible variations from a specified size. Due to the variations of processing it is often impossible to guarantee absolute accuracy therefore an agreed tolerance level must be specified. It is usually expressed as a plus or minus figure e.g., 0.050" thick plus 0.005" minus 0.005".
