Hexagonal Comb Wet Film Thickness Gauge

The hexagonal comb wet film gauge is a metal comb with six teeth of different heights, used to measure the thickness of wet coatings. It is pressed vertically into the wet film, and the number of the wetted tooth is observed, with the corresponding tooth height indicating the film thickness. It is used for rapid on-site control of coating application quality to avoid excessive thickness or insufficient coverage.
Selection
When selecting, consider the range of the film thickness to be measured to cover the expected thickness; choose stainless steel material for corrosion resistance; ensure clear tooth shape for easy reading; comply with industry standards such as ASTM; and opt for a sturdy structure that resists deformation. Select specifications that match the commonly used coating thickness, balancing practicality and durability.
