E:xplana ti ona
DI N 7162 is used for determining gauge dimensions. In t he case of gauges for internal dimensions
the tabulated values apply to workpiece qualities from IT 6 to IT 16, and in the case of
external dime nsions to workpiece qualities from IT 5 to IT 16. The present issue takes account
of ISO tolerances according to ISO Recommendation ISO/R 286 - 1962, Compared with the October
1936 issue of DIN 7162 some alterations have been made to gauge dimensions as a result of
modification of certain basic tolerances (see DIN 7151, Issue of November 1964) and of certain
basic allowances (see DIN 7152, Issue of July 1965). For the fixed gauges affected by these
changes the new ISO values are compared with the previous ISA values in the Tables below.

According to ISO, in the nominal size range over 6 and up to 10 tne basic allowances are as
follows: for zb T67 instead of +70 previously, for ZB 6 -64 instead of -76 previously,
for ZB 7 -61 instead or -79 previously and for ZC 7 -91 instead of -93 previously.
In the range over 400 and up to 450 the basic allowance 2400 instead of 2~50pm applies to
zc for all qualities and to ZC !rom and including quality 8 and in tne range over 450 and
up to 500 the basic allowance 2100 instead of 2050j£m applies to zb for all qualities and
to ZB from and including quality 8.
The gauge manufacturing tolerances H, He, H and H are correlated with workpiece tolerances.
The correlation adopted in the ISA system ot
fits ~see DIN 7150 Sheet 2, Issue of July 1938x)
has been retained. In the qualities used for gauge manufacture the ISO basic tolerances have
undergone extensive changes compared with the ISA values. These changes are shown in the
Table below on the right.
