Elcometer 3230 wet film wheel
The Elcometer 3230 Wet Film Wheel is a high-precision, easy-to-use instrument designed for accurate measurement of wet film thickness in liquid coatings. It features a unique three-wheel design, where the central wheel is smaller and mounted eccentrically between the two outer wheels. As the wheel rolls over a freshly applied coating, the point at which the center wheel first contacts the film indicates its thickness.
When the volume solids ratio of the coating is known (typically listed on the manufacturer’s product data sheet), the wet film thickness measured with the Elcometer 3230 can be used to predict the expected dry film thickness, helping to ensure compliance with coating specifications.
Accurate, reliable, and built for demanding applications, the Elcometer 3230 Wet Film Wheel is the perfect tool for on-the-spot wet film thickness measurement.
