The table below provide equivalent values for...
the Average Roughness R a , the USA R a Values, the approximate R t values, the N numbers, the obsolete triangular representations,
and some manufacturing finishes. There is no mathematical relationship between R a and R t The R t values shown in the table below are
very approximate and should only be used for guidance...
