This punched Aluminium Thickness Gauge offers the user a low-cost method of measuring the wet film thickness.
The Elcometer 112AL, being punched from aluminum, is not as accurate as precision formed, stainless steel wet film combs and has a shorter lifespan.
Supplied in a pack of 10 combs, they have Metric units (25 – 3000µm) on one side and Imperial values (1 – 118mils) on the other.
Using a wet film comb:
Place a comb perpendicular to and touching the substrate. Hold the comb in position and wait a few seconds until the teeth are wet. Remove the comb from the film. The wet film thickness lies between the biggest value ‘coated’ or ‘wet’ tooth and the smallest value ‘uncoated’ or ‘dry’ tooth.
Can be used in accordance with:
ASTM D 4414-A, AS/NZS 1580.107.3, BS 3900-C5-7B, ISO 2808-1A, ISO 2808-7B, JIS K 5600-1-7, NF T30-125, US NAVY PPI 63101-000, US NAVY NSI 009-32
