Agitator Nozzle Flange Face Roughness Requirements

nur12,
However the answer from unclesyd is a very accurate answer to your question, I would like to draw you attention to another very important point to achieve a tight connection, being the bolt closing torques.
If the agitator is hanging on the nozzle and/or causes substantial dynamical loads, the bolts should be prestressed sufficiently leaving the sealing member (gasket) acting as a spring.
