Upper and lower deviations of hole H10 for nominal sizes 0–500 mm, per ISO 286-1. Values in mm; "+" means larger than nominal, "-" smaller. Calculate other sizes →

Each row applies to the whole size range shown. Ranges are "over the first value, up to and including the second".
H10 is an ISO 286 tolerance class. The uppercase letter H is the fundamental deviation (which side of the nominal size the tolerance zone lies on), and the number 10 is the tolerance grade IT10 (how wide the zone is). Basic hole (zero-clearance sliding): The lower deviation is 0, so the hole is never smaller than nominal. It is the datum of the hole-basis system; holes made with reamers and drills are naturally H. H7 is the most common hole tolerance: dowel pin holes, bushing bores, bearing housings. Typical processes for IT10: ordinary turning, milling, drilling: non-fitting dimensions.
On a drawing or in a specification, Ø6 H10 and 6(+0.048/0) mean the same thing — the second form writes the deviations out, so nobody has to look them up. SFP product specifications always use the second form.

The tolerance zones of the classes below lie entirely inside H10 (true for every size range from 0 to 500 mm), so they also satisfy a drawing that calls for H10. Those listed first are closest to H10; price and lead time still depend on material, size and stock.
It depends on the diameter. For Ø6, H10 means the part must measure between 6.000 and 6.048 mm, written 6(+0.048/0). For other diameters see the chart above; every size range is listed.
Letters in uppercase denote a hole (inside diameter). In lowercase, h10 is a shaft tolerance, lying on the opposite side of the nominal size.
Yes. H9 is tighter than H10: at every diameter its limits fall inside the range H10 allows. The precision is simply higher than required, so the price may be a little higher.
Values follow ISO 286-1; the table was cross-checked cell by cell against three independent sources on 2026-08-26 (6,674 cells agree, 0 errors). Coverage: shafts a–z and the corresponding uppercase holes, IT1–IT13, nominal sizes 0–500 mm. cd/ef/fg/za/zb/zc, sizes above 500 mm and grades above IT13 are not included: the tool reports "not found" and never extrapolates.
