Color scraping Rod

The drawdown bar is a coating tool equipped with metal wires of specific diameters. It is used to evenly spread paint on a substrate surface to form a wet film, enabling the testing of paint hiding power, color difference, and leveling properties. It is widely applied in industries such as inks and plastics for laboratory quality control and on-site color comparison during production.
Selection
When selecting a coating rod, the roughness of the substrate must be considered—smooth surfaces require rods with finer wire diameters. The viscosity of the coating also plays a role, with high-viscosity coatings necessitating rods of larger wire diameters. The wire diameter specification determines the wet film thickness. Stainless steel material is recommended for its corrosion resistance. After use, promptly clean the rod with solvent to maintain its precision.
