Hexagonal wet film comb

A hexagonal wet film comb is a hexagonal metal plate with teeth of varying heights, used to measure the thickness of wet coatings. During use, the comb is pressed vertically into the undried coating, and the teeth that come into contact with the paint are observed. The thickness range of the coating can then be determined based on the height differences of the teeth. It is applied in the rapid monitoring of coating uniformity during the application of paint and ink.
Selection
When selecting, ensure the tooth height range covers common coating thicknesses, the stainless steel material prevents corrosion, and the tooth spacing is moderate to avoid paint adhesion. The hexagonal structure facilitates multi-angle measurements, and the tooth height markings are clear and easy to read. Choose an appropriate precision specification based on the actual fluctuations in coating thickness.

Wet film thickness gauge measures the wet film thickness of varnish.
The wet film thickness gauge is a mechanical tool used to measure the thickness of liquid varnish coatings. It operates by rolling the gauge so that the tips of its teeth contact the substrate and leave marks.
