Wet Film Thickness Gauge By Caltech Engineering Services

A Range of precision Wet Film Thickness Gauges (Stainless Steel) are widely used to measure wet film thickness of painted surfaces. Wet film thickness gauges are used for the quality control of wet film paint thickness. Gauges are supplied in micron / Thou Mill scales or dual micron and Thou/ Mill scales. Wet film thickness gauges are also called as wet film comb. These gauges are available in different shapes (Square, Rectangular, Hexagonal, Octagonal).

These Wet Film Thickness Gauges (Stainless Steel) assist painting contractors, paint companies, users to comply with the requirement of exact coating thickness over painted surface and control the coating process in wet coat of paint / primer. Excess / under coating is not permitted in view of drawbacks like cracking, excess coating thickness. Wet film thickness gauge can pre-determine coating thickness while it is wet condition. This being a destructive test, many users test wft gauge on the sample of rectangular panel, measure wet film thickness and control process parameters. Punched Aluminum wet film thickness gauges or WFT gauges are not preferred due to bending properties and low accuracy of the gauge, however they are economical and handy.
