  • 1.  Urgent - In Need of a Lab to Measure Surface Roughness

    Posted 08-29-2023 11:22 AM

    Hi All,

    I'm urgently needing a lab that is capable of testing the surface roughness of a cylindrical plastic tube.  Does anyone know of an accredited lab that is capable of performing this type of test?  Please let me know ASAP.

    Thanks,

    David

    Hi David. We do not do that (and no accreditation) but have you contacted colleges or universities around you? Also any specific method or standard you need to be used?
