ISO 286 Shaft Tolerance Calculator

The ISO shaft tolerance calculator determines preferred shaft tolerances according to ISO 286-1 and ISO 286-2. For a given nominal size and shaft tolerance designation (for example h6, g6 or k6), the calculator returns the upper and lower deviations in μm and the resulting maximum and minimum shaft sizes in mm.

Note: Use a dot (.) as the decimal separator.
