Sheet metal Flange and locating fasteners

Flange Width (FM) = SB + PT + EMT + C/2 + EM

Where:

FM = Flange Width (in, mm),
PT = Part Tolerance (in, mm),
EMT = Edge Margin Tolerance: Typical (.05 in, 1.27 mm),
SB = Setback Radius on Outside Wall (in, mm),
C = Fastener Head Diameter (in, mm),
EM = Edge Margin (in, mm)
