Three important advantages of profile tolerances are:
1. Profile tolerances provide a clear definition of the tolerance zone
2. Profile tolerancing communicates how to hold the part for repeatable measurements
3. Profile tolerancing eliminates tolerance accumulation

All applications of profile tolerances control form, and (depending upon the application) a profile tolerance may control ____________________ (or alignment) or size.

There are five types of tolerance zones that may be used with a profile tolerance.
1. Bilateral tolerance zone (equally disposed)
2. Bilateral tolerance zone (unequally disposed)
3. Unilateral tolerance zone (outside of material)
4. Unilateral tolerance zone (inside of material)
5. Non-uniform tolerance zone
