PCE INSTRUMENTS coating thickness gauge details
PCE Instruments Coating Thickness Gauge (PCE-CT 80-FN2D5)
PCE Instruments Coating Thickness Gauge (PCE-CT 80-FN2D5) is a measuring device for non-destructive coating measurement on steel, iron, and non-ferrous metals. Its external sensor allows precise readings in hard-to-reach areas.
With a USB interface for easy data transfer and an integrated memory that stores up to 2000 readings, this device is ideal for quality control, industrial inspections, and automotive refinishing. It supports multipoint and zero-point calibration for accurate measurements.
