Steel Zinc Coating Thickness Gauge

The steel zinc coating thickness gauge measures the thickness of the zinc layer through magnetic induction or eddy current principles. The magnetic induction method is used for magnetic substrates, while the eddy current method is used for non-magnetic substrates. The instrument detects the influence of the zinc layer on the magnetic field or eddy current and converts it into a thickness reading. It is used for quality control of anti-corrosion coatings on steel to ensure the uniformity of the zinc layer.
Selection
When selecting a steel zinc coating thickness gauge, consider the substrate type: use magnetic induction for ferromagnetic substrates and eddy current for non-ferromagnetic ones. Choose the measurement range based on the zinc coating thickness, and ensure the accuracy meets standard requirements. The operating environment determines whether a portable or benchtop model is suitable, and regular calibration is necessary to ensure reliable measurements.
