Probe Elcometer 456 Coating Thickness
Elcometer 456 Coating Thickness Gauge Probe Range Explained
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 : Designed for taking coating thickness readings where access is restricted
PINIP™ Probes : Plug-in probes convert a separate coating thickness gauge into an integral gauge
Telescopic Probes : Extending right angle probes for out of reach areas
Scan Probes : These probes are fitted with replaceable probe caps – allowing users to take individual coating thickness measurements or scan large surface areas without damaging the probe
Waterproof Probes : Sealed for use underwater at depth, even in diving gloves
High Temperature Probes : For use on hot coated materials up to 250°C (480°F)
Anodising Probes : Chemical resistant washable probes – ideal for the anodising environment
Armoured Cable Probes : Probes with metal reinforced heavy duty cables, reducing the risk of cable damage
Soft Coating Probes : Large surface area probes for soft reach materials (HVCA approved)
Specialist Probes : These 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 (176°F) with the exception of separate ferrous probes 150°C (300°F) and Hi-Temperature PINIP’s 250°C (480°F). 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.
