Meter measures coating gloss and thickness.

Press Release Summary:




Using same sample position to measure coating gloss and thickness, micro-TRI-gloss II features scroll wheel menu navigation and easy-link software for documentation in Excel®. Unit holds up to 999 readings with name input and displays statistics, difference, and pass/fail readings. Measurement range for 20°, 60°, and 85° high-gloss to matte coatings is 0-2,000 GU, 0-1,000 GU, and 0-160 GU respectively. Dual Fe/NFe sensor measures thickness from 0-1,000 µm.
