PosiTest DFT coating thickness gage
DeFelsko’s PosiTest DFT coating thickness gauge measures coating thickness on a variety of metal substrates. The company says its features include a fast measurement speed of over 60 readings per minute, onscreen averaging for up to 99 readings, a high contrast color LCD, and an auto rotating display with lock to prevent unintended rotations. The gauge is available in two models — ferrous for measuring coatings on steel and combo for measuring coatings on all metals. DeFelsko says the unit has strong, wear-resistant, ruby-tipped probes and no calibration adjustment is required for most applications. It is designed for powder coaters, paint applicators, inspectors and more.
