Needle Pressure Gauge
102
-
The Elcometer 102 Needle Pressure Gauge is designed to measure air pressure up to 20bar (300psi) in blast and air hoses. Pressure drop is responsible for decreased production rates, increased abrasive consumption and reduced anchor profile in abrasive blasting systems.

Moisture Measurement
-
Moisture: The presence of moisture within a material will result in poor adhesion, premature coating failure and poor appearance. For example, applying a powder coating to a damp wooden panel will cause steam to be created when the panel passes through the curing oven, thus causing damage to the coating. It is not sufficient to simply ensure that the surface is dry by touch. The surface of the substrate is often the driest point due to evaporation. It is important to establish the moisture content within the substrate itself. The moisture measurement can either be taken using a Pin moisture meter or Pinless (Contact-Type) moisture meter.

Calibration
-
Formal quality systems, such as those described in ISO 9000, require gauges to be properly controlled, logged and in calibration. Increasingly, users are specifying that the readings taken by gauges are traceable to National Standards. There are three types of coating thickness standards available from Elcometer: calibration foils, coated standards and zero test plates.

Product
Dry Film Thickness
-
Dry film thickness, coating thickness or paint thickness as it is often known, is probably the most critical measurement in the coatings industry. It provides vital information as to the expected life of the substrate, the product’s fitness for purpose, its appearance and ensures compliance with a host of International Standards. In 1947, Elcometer launched one of the world’s first non-destructive coating thickness gauges, the Elcometer 101 Coating Thickness Gauge. For more than 6 decades, the design and production qualities of this rugged and reliable instrument have been the watchwords for all our products and these philosophies are still held today. Elcometer has a comprehensive range of Dry Film Thickness gauges to meet all of your coating inspection requirements.

Product
Density Cup
1800
-
The Elcometer 1800 Density Cup is a stainless steel precision cup for determining the specific gravity or density of paints and similar products.
-
Product
Wet Film Wheels
3230
-
By rolling the gauge through a wet coating, the centre wheel eventually touches the film. This point on the scale indicates the thickness.
