Elcometer 345 Coating Thickness Gauge The Elcometer 345 Coating Thickness Gauge is an incredibly versatile gauge.
(F), Non Ferrous (NF) or both Ferrous and Non Ferrous (FNF) Substrates, the Elcometer 345 will have a gauge for your requirements. The gauge is easy to use and has been designed with the operator in mind. User definable simple statistics allows the user to view average, standard deviation, number of readings, maximum and minimum thickness readings. These statistics can be printed out.
Elcometer offers the worlds most comprehensive range of portable digital coating thickness gauges - for measurements on either Ferrous substrates (F), Non-Ferrous substrates (NF), or on both Ferrous and Non-Ferrous (FNF), Elcometer can provide you with a gauge to meet your need. With a wide choice of gauges to choose from, the User needs to understand the terminology of Coating Thickness Gauges or, The Language of CTGs. THE LANGUAGE OF CTGs In selecting the most appropriate gauge for your application, you need to answer specific questions. 1. What is the substrate (the surface metal) you are coating/inspecting?
At a glance Simple, easy-to-use digital coating thickness gauge. Ferrous, Non-Ferrous & Dual-Ferrous versions available. Supplied complete with probe and foils.
Keylock feature to avoid accidental recalibration Switchable between microns or mm & mils Bigfoot for stability on integral models Ideal for flat, curved and blasted surfaces Fast reading rate Two point calibration
Can be used in accordance with: FERROUS (F) ASTM B 499 BS 5411-11 BS 3900-C5-6Aa BS EN ISO 1461 DIN 50981 ISO 2178 ISO 2808-6Aa prEN ISO 19840 NON-FERROUS (NF) ASTM D 1400 ASTM B 244 BS 5411-3 BS 3900-C5-6Ba BS 5599 DIN 50984 ISO 2360 ISO 2808-6Ba DUAL FERROUS and NON-FERROUS (FNF) All of the Ferrous and Non-Ferrous List plus; ASTM E 376
Is the metal a Ferrous Substrate (F) or a Non-Ferrous (NF)? Sometimes this is difficult to answer the substrate may have already been coated .The easiest way to identify this is to see if a magnet will stick to the surface. If it does, then the substrate will be Ferrous, if it does not, then the substrate is NonFerrous. 2. Do you measure only on this substrate?
If you only inspect one type of product, then the answer is yes. If you have a range of products that you inspect, then you need to consider whether they are all of the same type of substrate. You should also consider if you have a future possibility of inspecting other substrates. If so, you should consider an FNF gauge.

Integral Probe (the probe is built into the gauge for accurate single handed measurements on large surface areas, pipes, etc.) Separate Probe (the probe is connected to the gauge by a cable for all applications). PINIP (the separate probe is directly attached to the base of the instrument providing, in your separate gauge, all the benefits of an integral unit).
Separate Probes can be selected from our wide range to meet your application requirements. These include:
Regular Probes: Including Straight, Right Angle (90) and Telescopic options Miniature Probes: Including Straight, Right Angle (90), 45 Angle all in either long or short versions. Do you need to save your readings for your ISO records, or as proof of inspection to your customer?
