* Out-of-round is the difference between the maximum and minimum diameter of a round bar measured at the same cross section out-of-square is the difference in the two dimensions at the same cross section of a square .
-each dimension being the distance between opposite faces.

Standard Straightness – ¼” in any 5 feet, or ¼” x number of feet of length divided by 5
Special Straightness – 1/2 “ in any 5 feet, or ½” x number of feet of length divided by 5
NOTE: Straightness tolerances do not apply to hot rolled alloy steel bars if any
subsequent heating operation has been preformed.
