Use this geometry in a brief

Example specification only. A real order requires agreed drawings, physical samples and applicable product evidence.

READ THE FEATURES

The detail defines the conversation.

Locating and spacing in mechanical assemblies. Fit, concentricity and surface requirements need a controlled drawing.

01

Name the locating feature

Clarify whether the bore or outside diameter locates the sleeve. That decision affects the datum and measurement conversation.

02

Describe the end faces

End-face relationship and length need to be read together. A single overall length does not express all assembly requirements.

03

Review the internal finish

Tool access, bore finish and edge breaks can affect insertion and handling. Record those requirements before a sample review.

DOCUMENTS / SCOPE TO DISCUSS

A clearer sample review.

Prepare the questions and requested evidence before comparing a physical sample.

Does the bore or outside diameter locate the part?

Clarify whether the bore or outside diameter locates the sleeve. That decision affects the datum and measurement conversation.

How should the end-face relationship be measured?

End-face relationship and length need to be read together. A single overall length does not express all assembly requirements.

What edge condition is needed for insertion?

Tool access, bore finish and edge breaks can affect insertion and handling. Record those requirements before a sample review.
