Coating Thickness Gauge

A coating thickness gauge, also known as a paint thickness gauge or DFT meter, is an essential tool for measuring the thickness of a coating or paint on a surface. This tool is crucial in industries such as automotive and construction, where proper coating thickness ensures product durability and quality. There are different types of coating thickness gauges available in the market, including magnetic and eddy current gauges. Magnetic gauges are used to measure non-conductive coatings on ferromagnetic substrates, while eddy current gauges are suitable for non-magnetic coatings on non-ferrous substrates.

The selection of the right gauge depends on the specific application requirements. The cost of a coating thickness gauges can vary from a few hundred to several thousand dollars, depending on the features and brand. Some reputable manufacturers of coating thickness gauges include PCE Instruments, METERIVA, and METERDI. When selecting a gauge, it is essential to consider factors such as accuracy, repeatability, and range of measurement. Some gauges come with additional features such as data storage and analysis capabilities. ​

Overall, the proper use of a coating thickness gauge ensures accurate readings and consistent performance in your application. It is a valuable tool for ensuring the quality and durability of coated products. Choose a reliable manufacturer and use the gauge correctly to ensure accurate readings and consistent performance in your application.
