Behandling av stålytor före beläggning med färg, lack och liknande produkter - Karakterisering av ytråhet hos blästrade stålunderlag - Del 4: Metod för kalibrering av ISO ytprofilkomparatorer och för bestämning av ytprofil - Förfarande med nålinstrument (ISO 8503-4:2012)

This part of ISO 8503 specifes the stylus instrument and describes the procedure for calibrating ISO surface profle comparators conforming to the requirements of ISO 8503-1.
This part of ISO 8503 is also applicable to the determination of the surface profle, within the range Ry5 = 20 µm to Ry5 = 200 µm, of essentially planar blast-cleaned steel. The determination can be carried out on a representative section of the blast-cleaned surface or, if direct observation of the surface is not feasible, on a replica of the surface (see Annex C).
NOTE Where appropriate, this procedure can be used to assess the roughness profle of other abrasive blast-cleaned substrates.
An alternative procedure is described in ISO 8503-3.
