Coating Fineness Applicator

The paint fineness gauge evenly spreads the paint on a graduated plate using a scraper, and determines the maximum particle size of pigments or fillers based on the scale position where particles become visible. It is used to control the dispersion quality of coatings, prevent surface roughness of the coating film, and is applied in paint production and quality inspection processes.
Selection
When selecting, consider the viscosity range of the coating to match the measurement range of the scraper, ensure the stainless steel material provides wear resistance, and opt for clear scales for easy reading, with an ergonomic operation handle. Choose different accuracy specifications based on the needs of routine or precision testing, and ensure compatibility with laboratory or on-site usage environments.
