DIMENSIONS FOR RELIEF GROOVES Extracted from DIN 509-2006- Technical drawings - Relief grooves - Types and dimensions

Relief Groove Type E The relief groove Type E (see Fig. 1) is applied for work pieces, for which at the plane surface no increased demands are made and their cylindrical surface is processed further in case of need as well as if the part of assembly has a relatively large depression or no deposit on the plane surface.

Relief Groove Type F A relief groove Type F (see Fig. 2) is used for work pieces, whose surfaces which are at right angle to one another are machined further if necessary.
