Is there any difference between anchor profile and roughness?

2006

The specification say "Surface Preparation-White metal sandblast (sspc-sp5) 1.5mils anchor profile", but the roughness tester's indication differentiate measurement range to Ra (0.001 mils to 0.5 mils) and Rz (0.001 to 5 mils). I have been bothered that if the tester satisfy the specification! Can you help me?
