Punched Wet Film Combs (Aluminium)
112AL
-
The Elcometer 112AL, being punched from aluminium, is not as accurate as precision formed stainless steel wet film combs and has a shorter lifespan.

Product
Abrasive & Blast Inspection
-
Blasting parameters: A number of important parameters need to be monitored during the blasting or water jetting process, these include: air pressure (at the nozzle), nozzle diameter, blast media contamination & pH values in order to avoid recontamination of the substrate during blasting.

Drying Time & Permeability
-
When developing a coating process, it is important to know the exact time it takes for the coating to dry or cure. For multicoat paint systems, having knowledge of the drying time enables the operator to know when any subsequent layers can be applied. There are many stages involved in the coating drying time. Once a coating has been applied, it levels off under gravity, and, as the coating begins to cure, a thin dry film appears on the surface. The coating then continues to dry until, finally, it is totally cured.

Digital Pocket Thermometer
212
-
The probe conveniently folds back into the side of the instrument, preventing damage when not in use.Liquid or surface probe options availableUser switchable between °C and °FResolution can be set to 0.1°C (0.1°F) or 1°C (1°F)

Physical Test Equipment
-
When assessing a coating for suitability for a particular application the testing of the physical properties such as bendability, impact resistance, hardness, washability and abrasion resistance are all required to provide information for decision making. Testing of the pigments using fineness of grind gauges, determining the specific gravity of the coating using density cups, measuring the viscosity using viscosity cups or rotational viscometers and assessing the drying time all provide information for the coating technical data sheets.

Sclerometer Hardness Tester
3092
-
The Elcometer 3092 Sclerometer Hardness Tester measures the hardness of a coating by moving a Tungsten Carbide Tip over the coating with a predetermined force.
-
Product
Concrete Test Hammers
-
Test hammers are used to determine the surface hardness of concrete and are one of the most widely used instruments to assess concrete compressive strength. It is the quickest, simplest and least expensive method to obtain an estimate of the quality and strength of the concrete. Test Hammers with both analogue and digital displays are available.

Product
Elcometer Testex® Replica Tape
122
-
Elcometer 122 Testex® Tape consists of foam with a non-compressible backing. The foam side is rubbed into the surface providing a permanent mould of the peak-to-valley profile. The profile of the surface can then be measured using the Elcometer 124 Thickness Gauge.

Manual Clemen Unit
Elcometer 3000
-
The Elcometer 3000 Manual Clemen Unit is a robust and simple to use instrument for evaluating the resistance to scratching of a coated surface.
-
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.

Product
Pfund Thickness Gauge
3233
-
Available in aluminium or stainless steel this instrument consists of two concentric cylinders, one sliding inside the other. A spherical glass lens, which has engraved measurements, is fitted to the end of the central cylinder and when pressed into the wet film, leaves a circular trace.The diameter of the mark on the lens is measured and, using the supplied conversion table, the thickness of the coating can be easily assessed.Ideal for measuring the thickness of wet translucent products such as varnishes, oils etc.Measurement range of 2.25 - 360μm (0.09 - 14.17mils)
-
Product
Hexagonal Wet Film Combs (Stainless Steel)
112 & 3236
-
These hexagonal precision formed stainless steel wet film combs are long lasting, reusable and supplied in a range of thicknesses measuring up to 3,000μm (120mils).

Product
Chloride Ion Test Kit for Water
134W
-
The Elcometer 134W is used to monitor recycled water (after it has been applied) to establish effectiveness of salt removal, this test is ideal for testing the salt contamination in wash water and blast water.
