What is the use of PosiTector 6000 coating thickness gauge?

The 6000-FJS is for measuring thick coatings on ferrous metal substrates. Ideal for measuring thick epoxies, rubbers, fireproofing and other thick protective coatings applied to steel.

What is the thickness of paint?

In the U.S. the thickness of paint is expressed in mils (one mil equals 1/1000 of inch). The rest of the world expresses coating thickness in microns (1 micron = 1 millionth of a meter and 25.4 microns = . 001” inch or 1 mil).

How is coating thickness calculated?

film thickness needs to be using some simple mathematical formulae:

Wet Film Thickness.
=
Dry Film Thickness x 100.
% Volume Solids.
Spreading Rate (m2/litre) =
% Volume Solids x 10.
DFT Required.
