This standard provides procedures for measurement of the surface profile height of a part prepared by abrasive blast cleaning or another method, using replica tape.
The range for measurement of surface profile height by this method is 13–150 μm (0.5–6.0 mils).
This standard is not intended to suggest the appropriate surface profile height for an application. Appropriate surface profile height should be determined through agreement between interested parties and consultation with the manufacturer of the coating to be applied.
