SSPC - PA 17

Procedure for Determining Conformance to Steel Profile/Surface Roughness/Peak Count Requirements

active, Most Current
Organization: SSPC
Publication Date: 27 December 2020
Status: active
Page Count: 7
scope:

This standard describes a procedure suitable for shop or field use to determine conformance to specified profile ranges on a steel substrate using Methods A (visual comparator), B (depth micrometer), C (replica tape), and D (stylus surface roughness instrument) as described in ASTM D4417, and the portable stylus instrument method used to determine surface roughness and peak count as described in ASTM D7127.
