Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing Visual Glossary

Keep GD&T terms and symbols clear, consistent, and easy to reference with the Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing Visual Glossary. This compact, at-a-glance resource is designed for the moments when you just need quick confirmation of what a symbol means, how a term is commonly used, or what you should be thinking about when interpreting a requirement on a drawing.

Unlike text-heavy references, a visual glossary is built for speed. Use it during drawing reviews, supplier conversations, and inspection planning to keep everyone aligned during discussions about datums, the datum reference frame, feature control frames, and the symbols that define permissible variation. It’s also a practical addition to onboarding: new team members can build familiarity faster when they can connect terminology to clear visual examples.

This guide is a strong fit for design, manufacturing, and quality teams that want a shared reference at their desks or in a training room. When the basics are easy to look up, you spend less time debating definitions and more time ensuring requirements are communicated and verified the way your product needs.
