RMA Tolerances for Cutting to Length Extrusions

Unspliced extrusions are classified as those that generally require only extruding, vulcanizing and cutting to length. They are of various cross sectional designs and do not include lathe cut parts, formed tubing, or precision ground and cut parts. They are generally packed in a straight or coiled condition after being measured and cut to length.
The following tables are to be used to convey to the manufacturer the limits that are designed by the purchaser.

It should be understood by the design engineers that due to the stretch factor in rubber, a period of conditioning at room temperature must be allowed before measurements for length are taken. A specific technique of measurement should be agreed upon between the purchaser and manufacturer.

Note: Special consideration on tolerances will have to be given to both extremely soft and high tensile stocks.
