In precision quality control and material science fields, accurate coating thickness measurement is far more than a single production step. It directly decides product performance, service life and compliance with global industrial standards. For professionals across various manufacturing and inspection sectors, a precise and stable coating thickness gauge is an essential tool. As a leading supplier in the test and measurement instrument industry, Mikrosize develops state-of-the-art measurement tools built for outstanding performance. Our portable magnetic coating thickness gauge fully embodies our pursuit of high precision, robust durability and humanized operation, making it the ideal solution to verify coating integrity on all metal substrates.
Unmatched Precision for Coating Thickness Testing
Our flagship coating thickness gauge adopts magnetic induction non-destructive testing (NDT) technology. This mature technology enables fast, accurate measurement of non-magnetic coatings including paint, powder coatings, electroplating layers, enamel and plastic films on ferromagnetic substrates such as carbon steel and iron.Working principle: The device detects magnetic pull force between its built-in permanent magnet and the steel base material. The thicker the non-magnetic coating layer, the weaker the magnetic pull force detected. This testing method delivers instant, stable and fully non-destructive readings, without damaging finished workpieces while providing credible measurement data.
Technical Specifications Optimized for Industrial Scenarios
All Mikrosize measuring instruments are engineered to surpass mainstream industry standards, maintaining stable performance both in laboratory environments and harsh on-site working conditions. Key parameters of our coating thickness gauge are designed for wide compatibility and high precision:
- Measurement Range: 0–1250 μm, covering most industrial applications from thin anodic oxidation films to heavy-duty anti-corrosion coatings. Custom measuring ranges are available to match unique customer testing demands.
- High Resolution & Accuracy: Switchable resolution of 0.1 μm or 1 μm. Measurement accuracy: ± (1.5 μm + 3% of measured value) or ± 2 μm, whichever is larger. Such high precision fully meets strict quality control and industrial specification requirements.
- Design for Complex Surfaces: Minimum measurable curvature radius of 5 mm for both convex and concave surfaces. The probe supports accurate testing on pipes, curved panels and workpiece edges. The minimum test area reaches 10 mm × 10 mm, suitable for narrow gaps and small components.
- Wide Substrate Compatibility: Supports measurement over thin substrates as thin as 0.4 mm, perfectly fitting automotive body panels, electronic casings and other thin metal sheets.
- Portable & Compact Structure: Powered by two standard AA batteries for long-duration field operation. Overall dimensions: 24 mm × 66 mm × 22 mm, total weight only 99 g including batteries, easy to hold and carry for all-day outdoor inspection.
- Stable Environmental Adaptability: Normal operating temperature: 0 °C to 40 °C; relative humidity range: 10% – 85%, suitable for regular workshop and site conditions.
- Dual Unit Switching: One-click conversion between metric thickness units (μm, mm) and imperial units (mils), compatible with global test reporting standards and diverse user habits.
Broad Industrial Application Coverage
Mikrosize portable coating thickness gauges serve as core quality control equipment for multiple industries:
1.Manufacturing & metal processing: Conduct thickness inspection for painted auto parts, structural steel, home appliances and mechanical equipment, avoiding insufficient coating that causes corrosion or excessive coating that wastes raw materials and triggers curing defects.
2.Chemical & plant engineering: Test anti-corrosion lining layers of storage tanks, conveying pipelines and reaction vessels exposed to corrosive media.
3.Third-party inspection & construction engineering: Verify coating thickness specifications of bridges, buildings, ships and offshore engineering platforms for contractors and surveyors.
4.Aerospace, marine and equipment maintenance: Check coating integrity during equipment renovation and routine safety inspections.
