Elcometer 456 Dry Film Thickness Gauge Probe Options
Product Description
All Elcometer 456 Coating Thickness Gauge probes are fully interchangeable and are available in a number of designs and scale ranges to meet your specific application.
Ferrous coating thickness gauge probes measure non-magnetic coatings on ferro-magnetic substrates. Elcometer 456 Coating Thickness Ferrous Gauges accept any ferrous probe.
Non-Ferrous coating thickness gauge probes measure non-conductive coatings on non-ferrous metal substrates and Elcometer 456 Non-Ferrous Gauges accept any non-ferrous probe.
Dual Ferrous Non-Ferrous probes measure both ferrous and non-ferrous applications with automatic substrate detection. Elcometer 456 Ferrous Non-Ferrous Coating Thickness Gauges accept all Ferrous, Non-Ferrous and Dual Ferrous Non-Ferrous probes.
 | Standard Straight Probes Standard probes measure coatings on both flat and curved surfaces |
 | Mini Probes Mini probes are ideal for harder to reach areas and edges |
 | Right Angle Probes Right Angle Probes are designed for taking coating thickness readings where access is restricted |
 | Plug-in Probes Plug-in probes convert a separate coating thickness gauge into an integral gauge |
 | Telescopic Probes Telescopic Probes extends right angle probes for out of reach areas |
 | Scan Probes Scan Probes allows users to take individual measurement or scan large surface areas without damaging the probes – fitted with replaceable probe caps |
 | Waterproof Probes Waterproof Probes are sealed for use underwater at depth |
 | High Temperature Probes High Temperature Probes for use on hot coated materials up to 250°C |
 | Anodising Probes Anodising Probes are chemical resistant washable probes – ideal for the anodising environment |
 | Armoured Cable Probes Armoured Cable Probes with metal reinforced heavy duty cables, reducing the risk of cable damage |
 | Soft Coating Probes Soft Coating Probes have large surface area probes for soft reach materials (HVCA approved) |
 | Specialist Probes Specialist Probes are designed for measuring coating thickness on specialist substrates such as graphite or electroplated components |
Elcometer probes have a maximum operating temperature of 80°C with the exception of separate ferrous probes 150°C and Hi-Temperature PINIP’s 250°C. The stated temperature is the substrate temperature, and the duty cycle of the probe must be reduced to ensure a minimal temperature build-up within the probe.
All Elcometer coating thickness gauge probes are supplied with a Test Certificate and a set of calibration foils appropriate to the scale range of the probe.
