Dial-Pointer Thickness Gauge

The dial thickness gauge measures material thickness through mechanical contact. A probe contacts the surface of the sample, and the dial indicator displays the thickness value. It is used to measure the thickness of soft materials such as films, coatings, and paper, ensuring that products meet specification requirements.
Selection
When selecting a dial thickness gauge, consider the measurement range to match the sample thickness, the division value to meet accuracy requirements, the probe pressure to avoid damaging soft materials, a calibration certificate to ensure measurement accuracy, and the operating environment to suit laboratory or workshop conditions.
