Can’t believe most inspectors and especially engineers don’t know this!
On a hole diameter MMC = Actual measured hole size minus the smallest allowable size which is the MMC condition… max material.
So for TP .5 on a 10.0 +/- .5 hole that measures 10.1
You get .6 Bonus (actual size 10.1 minus the smallest size 9.5 = .6) this .6 extra tolerance is then added to the given .5 TP tolerance for a grand total of 1.1 tolerance.
For a solid pin or outside cylinder it’s outside diameter, same concept. Largest allowable size minus the actual = Bonus Tolerance.
BONUS TOLERANCE =
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MMC SIZE AND ACTUAL SIZE! ADDED TO GIVEN TP TOLERANCE IN THE FEATURE CONTROL FRAME.
Ever get the impression there are those engineers deliberately trying to sabotage every process they touch. Their goal is to burry everyone so deep in unnecessary work that it will never get done on time… but they will throw you under the bus
