Surface finish pocket guide 2

[Rarrel]

Hi all,

Can any of you tell me where i can get one of those pocket surface finish guides (europe if possible), you know the ones with the little machined samples bonded to a plate; I have googled with no avail. Thanks

Do a search on eBay in the category:
Business & Industrial > Manufacturing & Metalworking > Metalworking Tooling, Supplies > Inspection & Measurement > Inspection Gages > Surface

I found bid prices starting from $1 (plus S&H). E.g.,

The companies that sell surface profilometers, e.g., Federal & Mitutoyo & Hommel sell the surface guides as well as standard calibration surfaces. Elcometer has surface profile - surface roughness, comparators & pit gauges:
