A cross section view of pipe comprises of two
theoretically concentric circles. But, during
manufacturing, the processing through dies could
result in an eccetricity of the two circles. This
tolerence specified gives the upper limit of such an
exception. Obviously, this causes thicker wall at one
end and a thinner one at the opposite end of it.
I wish this clarifies the doubt.
Regards and good luck!
