Coating Application Metering Rod

Coating metering rods control the amount of coating transferred through grooves engraved on the surface of the rod, with the depth of the grooves determining the coating thickness. Their function is to form a uniform wet film on the substrate, used for the coating preparation of laboratory paints and inks. Applications include the production of coated samples and quality control for paper and plastic films.
Selection
When selecting a coating applicator rod, it is essential to consider the substrate's surface characteristics, match the groove depth with the target coating thickness, choose the appropriate rod type based on the viscosity of the coating, pay attention to the chemical compatibility between the rod material and the coating, and ensure that the rod's accuracy meets the requirements of the testing standards.
