Wet Film Coating Wire Rod

The wet film drawdown bar is a cylindrical rod with metal wires of specific diameters, used to form a wet film on a substrate through manual scraping. The gap between the metal wires determines the thickness of the wet film. It is employed for coating and sample preparation of paints and inks, and is used in conjunction with dry film thickness gauges to test properties such as hiding power and leveling.
Selection
Select the wire-wound rod specification based on the viscosity of the sample: choose a fine wire diameter for low viscosity and a coarse wire diameter for high viscosity. The flatness of the substrate affects the selection; use a larger wire diameter for rough surfaces. Standard test methods specify the wire-wound rod number corresponding to the film thickness, which should be selected according to product standards. The rod material can be stainless steel or plastic, chosen based on corrosiveness.
