Laboratory Film Coating Rod

The laboratory coating rod features specific-depth grooves on its metal surface. When used to draw a coating on a substrate, these grooves control the thickness of the retained paint, forming a uniform wet film. It is used for the preparation and quality inspection of film thickness in coatings and inks, and works in conjunction with drying or curing equipment to evaluate coating performance.
Selection
When selecting an applicator rod, factors such as substrate flatness, paint viscosity, and the desired wet film thickness must be considered. The groove dimensions determine the coating thickness, with common specifications ranging from 25 to 500 microns. Rods are typically made of stainless steel or aluminum alloy, and their length should match the width of the substrate. After use, it is important to clean the grooves promptly to avoid clogging.
