Coating Thickness Gauge for Ferrous and Non-Ferrous Metals

This compact coating thickness gauge is designed for precise non-destructive measurement of coating thickness on ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The device is suitable for measuring non-magnetic coatings such as paint, enamel and chrome on steel and iron surfaces, as well as insulating coatings including paint and anodized layers on non-ferrous metals.

Suitable coating types include:

• Paint
• Lacquer
• Enamel
• Chrome
• Anodized coatings
• Rubber coatings
• Insulating layers
