I asked this (about drums) on the list a couple of months ago because
the shop I was using needed to knowif mine would be within the legal
limit. I was unable to find a TR answer, but found some state & federal
Highway Safety sites that have a standard for drums where the max is not
stamped on the drum and the manufacture's spec is unavailable. For 10
inch drums my recollection was a max of 10.090.
Note -- this was for truck & bus inspection, but it was the only thing
close I could find. The info was good enough for the shop who just
wanted to cover themselves.
I didn't have to go nearly that large but it gave me a number I could
quote. Wonder how this compares to the spec on modern drums?
As for discs -- thought this was in the manual though I don't have one
handy.
