Elcometer 224 B Digital Surface Profile Gauge - Integral Probe (0-20 mils / 0-500µm)
Achieve precise and repeatable surface profile measurements with this Elcometer 224 B Digital Surface Profile Gauge. Featuring a convenient integral probe, this robust instrument is an essential tool for preparing surfaces for coating, ensuring optimal adhesion and long-term coating performance.
Key Features & Benefits:
Integral Probe for Ease of Use: The built-in probe design (often referred to as "integral") allows for comfortable, single-handed operation and provides enhanced stability during measurement, leading to consistent and reliable results.
Wide Measurement Range: Capable of accurately measuring surface profiles from 0 to 20 mils (0 to 500µm). This range covers the vast majority of surface preparation specifications, from shot blasting to grit blasting.
High Accuracy and Resolution: Delivers precise readings with high resolution, critical for meeting stringent surface preparation standards and maximizing coating adhesion.
Fast Reading Rate: Designed for efficiency, the gauge offers a rapid reading rate, allowing for quick assessment of large areas and boosting productivity.
Clear Digital Display: Features a bright and easy-to-read digital display, presenting measurements clearly in both imperial (mils) and metric (microns/µm) units.
Robust and Durable Construction: Built to withstand the harsh environments typical of surface preparation sites. Its rugged design ensures long-lasting performance and reliability.
Versatile Applications: Ideal for a wide range of industries including:
Protective Coatings (pipelines, bridges, tanks)
Marine and Shipbuilding
Oil & Gas
Automotive Manufacturing
Any application where consistent surface roughness is critical for coating adhesion.
Essential for Coating Performance: Proper surface profile is crucial for good coating adhesion. This gauge helps you confirm that your blast-cleaned surfaces meet the required profile specifications, minimizing the risk of coating failure and ensuring optimal protective performance.
