Creation of surfaces with specific properties necessary for stable product operation is an urgent need for the surface quality management of such products. Surface roughness influences joint surface performance, also influences fatigue durability and connection tightness, and in motionless connections durability depends on size of part roughness. Fractal analysis allows to estimate surface roughness irrespective of the form of its elements and distribution density that would give universality for estimation.
