Locational transition fits are a compromise between clearance and interference fits.

Locational Transition Fits

A type of fit specifying a range wherein there may be either a slight interference or clearance between parts, used for parts requiring precise alignment.

Clearance

The amount of space or distance allowed between two parts for proper fit, function, or movement.

Interference Fits

A type of fit in mechanical engineering where two parts are so tightly fit together that they deform each other to stay in place.

  • Differentiate between the three general types of fits: clearance, interference, and transition.
  • Recognize the applications and characteristics of locational, clearance, and interference fits.
