Examples of Surface Texture Representation in 2D Engineering Drawings
Example Description
1. Leader Note with Texture CodeUse ISO surface finish symbol (∨) with text below, e.g. 'MT-11010' or 'VDI 24'. Arrow leader points to the surface. Common
2. Hatched Surface with Legend Apply a hatch/fill pattern to textured areas in the view. Provide a legend on the drawing: e.g., Hatch ■ = VDI 27 matte finish
3. A/B Surface Classification Label surfaces ■, ■, etc. Then in notes: A surfaces = MT-11010, B surfaces = SPI-C1. Good for separating cosmetic vs fun
4. Detail View with Pattern SketchAdd a blown-up detail showing simplified pattern (e.g., cubes, ribs). Annotate with the specific catalog code (e.g. YS-30123
