General tolerances in metal spinning are +/- 1/32", however each job must be evaluated on its own merits and special circumstances.
Tolerances will vary based on the part profile and the type and
thickness of the material. Tolerances are generally I.D. based
as
thinning of the material will occur during the spinning process.
A more generous radius tolerance will normally ease production
of a design. Radius tolerances will usually be 2X material thickness
or greater.
Flanges, beads, returns and reveals are common in spun metal parts
design.
Welded wraps, drawn shells and tubing as well as circles, are
candidates
for spinning. Shapes not possible from other forming processes
become possible with metal spinning.

circumstances.
Keep in mind that due to the nature of the process, tolerances
normally are ID.
