The defect may be unimportant or may be a critical defect that would cause unacceptable leakage, friction, poor fit, and/or cosmetic unattractiveness in the manufactured product. Detection of dings requires [[high-definition metrology]] of the entire critical surface areas of a manufactured part, since occurrence of dings is largely unpredictable as to their cause, frequency or location on the manufactured surfaces. * ''Ding'', jargon in surf culture, especially Californian, damage due to the impact of any object on a fiberglass surf board. * [[Ding (surname)]], a [[Chinese surname]] (Chinese: 丁; Pinyin: Dīng) * A program from [[Southwest Airlines]] allowing access to exclusive low fares. * Jargon for advancing a level in many video games, particularly of the role-playing genre.
