Measuring the film thickness of freshly applied coatings in the wet stage is very important. On one hand, film thickness influences the quality of a product; on the other, applying too much coating can be expensive. Depending on the application method, it is advisable to measure wet film thickness frequently to maintain an efficient coating process.
A wet film thickness gage is an inexpensive, easy to use device. It covers a wide range from industrial maintenance applications to thin coil coatings and can be used on virtually every substrate.
For measuring wet film thickness, BYKGardner offers a comb or interchemical gage. The comb is a ruler-shaped gage with two supports at each of its six sides, having tabs of varying lengths. The comb gages are available in different thickness ranges and a choice of stainless steel or plastic.
