Product Description
The Elcometer 4360 4361 Spiral Bar Coaters are made of stainless steel and consisting of a cylindrical bar wound with stainless steel wire, these spiral bar coaters are used to apply a predetermined thickness for coatings with high leveling characteristics.
A wide range of different wire diameters provides a range of measures for coating thicknesses from 4 to 500µm.
Two standard bar widths are available,140mm or 250mm, allowing the user to apply the correct film width dependent on the substrate or test chart width. Other widths are available on request.
Ideal for use with the Elcometer 4340 Motorised Film Applicator.

The Differences Between Film Applicators
Testing the properties of products such as paints, varnishes, cosmetics, or glues for example; is an important part of their development. In order to test them, consistent and reproducible samples need to be made in order to undertake fair, accurate, and comparable tests. This is where film applicators and spiral bar coaters come in.
In this video, we’re going to show you each applicator, how they work, and the sort of applications they’re designed for. Unless otherwise stated, all of the applicators we are about to show you can either be used manually or with the Elcometer 4340 Automatic Film Applicator.
