Din 16742 - Tg5 -
is not merely a number on a drawing. It is an engineering contract between designer, toolmaker, and molder. Specifying TG5 says: “I need functional fit, but I respect the physics of plastics.”
The significance of adhering to the DIN 16742 - TG5 standard cannot be overstated. Here are several reasons why: din 16742 - tg5
Draft angles: 1.0° per side unless noted All dimensions in mm; burrs max. 0.2 mm is not merely a number on a drawing
For comparison, TG7 is typically used for less precise methods like Structure Foam Moulding 3. Key Factors for Success burrs max. 0.2 mm For comparison
