Standard tolerances for quantity, shearing, circle shearing, and squareness. Apply to stock items and on special order items for which tolerances are not specified. If you require other than standard tolerances, or tolerances that not listed above, please specify using the welded wire mesh quote form and put the required tolerances in the “Comments Box.”
