nominal size

    0.03 sec.
nominal size [′näm·ə·nəl ′sīz]
(design engineering)
Size used for purposes of general identification; the actual size of a part will be approximately the same as the nominal size but need not be exactly the same; for example, a rod may be referred to as ¼ inch, although the actual dimension on the drawing is 0.2495 inch, and in this case ¼ inch is the nominal size.
