Fit families and tolerance limits are tabulated from the ANSI B4.1 inch-system tables as presented in Machinery's Handbook, 29th Edition, pages 641-648. Values are stored in thousandths of an inch and added to the entered basic size to display hole and shaft limits.

Use this as a design calculator and verify production-critical fits against the governing ANSI B4.1 table, drawing standard, and supplier process capability.
