complete surface is measured, and not
single points, as in circular runout.
In certain cases its use allows an increase in the specified tolerance if it is indicated
that the tolerance applies to the feature at its maximum material condition.
The maximum material principle takes into account the mutual dependence of
tolerances of size, form, orientation and/or location and permits additional tolerance
as the considered feature departs from its maximum material condition.
The symbol for maximum material condition is the letter M enclosed by a circle, M .
The symbol is positioned in the tolerance frame as follows:
Circumstances do arise where, for example, a designer would require to limit the
minimum wall thickness between a hole and the side of a component. In such a case
we need to control the least material condition where a part contains the minimum
amount of material.
The appropriate tolerance would then be quoted, followed by the letter L inside a
circle
