Explanation:-

The surface roughness on a drawing is represented by triangles.

Surface texture or roughness representation

The basic symbol consists of two legs of unequal length inclined at approximately 60° to the line representing the considered surface.

The symbol must be represented by a thin line.

The value of roughness is added to the symbols.

1. Roughness ‘a’ obtained by any production process.

2. Roughness ‘a’ obtained by machining.

3. Roughness ‘a’ obtained without removal of material.

If it is necessary to impose maximum and minimum limits of surface roughness, both values are indicated. a1 = Maximum limit; a2 = Minimum limit
