3 TEST PROCEDURE: ISO-8503 Part 2
ISO 8503 Part 2 specifies the following procedure:
1 Remove all loose dust and debris from the test surface.
2 Select the appropriate surface profile comparator. There are two
types:
Type G: for profiles after blast cleaning with grit abrasive;

Type S: for profiles after blast cleaning with shot abrasives.

3 Place the comparator against an area of the test surface.
Compare, in turn, the test surface with the four segments of the
comparator directly. Alternatively, use a hand lens with
magnification not exceeding x7, placed so that the test surface is
viewed simultaneously with a segment of the comparator.
a
Elcometer magnifier part number T10713356 is a suitable for this purpose. Please contact Elcometer or
