Wire Rod for paint scraper

The wire-wound rod for paint application is a coating tool made by winding a specific diameter of steel wire around a metal rod. The gaps between the steel wires determine the wet film thickness, and by scraping at a uniform speed, the paint forms an even coating. It is used in laboratory tests to evaluate the hiding power, leveling, and other properties of paints.
Selection
Select the wire diameter based on the viscosity of the paint, opting for a thicker wire for high viscosity. Determine the wet film thickness according to the testing standards, and match it with the corresponding wire bar number. Consider the flatness of the substrate; use a flexible wire bar for curved substrates. Wire bars are available in stainless steel and plastic, so choose based on corrosion resistance requirements.
