PCE INSTRUMENTS coating thickness gauge details
PCE Instruments Coating Thickness Gauge (PCE-CT 80HP-FN0D5)
PCE Instruments Coating Thickness Gauge (PCE-CT 80HP-FN0D5) is designed for non-destructive measurement of coatings such as paint and plastics on ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Its V-groove sensor allows for accurate measurements on both convex and concave surfaces.
Equipped with adjustable alarm limits and a robust rubberized housing, this gauge ensures durability and precision. It features data storage for up to 2,000 readings, which can be transferred to a computer for analysis using the included software.
