Let’s Talk About Measuring Coating Thickness Destructively
Learn about destructively measuring coating thickness using a Tooke gage (or similar device) according to Procedure A in ASTM D4138
Dry Film Thickness
Let’s Talk About Continuous Read Dry Film Thickness Measurement
Continuous read/scanning technology is readily available and can be specified when a project would benefit from a greater population of thickness measurements to help ensure consistency of the applied coating across large surfaces.
User Options for Surface Roughness Compensation When Measuring Dry Film Thickness of Coatings on Metal Surfaces
Two standards address the use of non-destructive dry film thickness gages: ASTM D7091, Standard Practice for Nondestructive Measurement of Dry Film Thickness of Nonmagnetic Coatings Applied to Ferrous Metals and Nonmagnetic, Nonconductive Coatings Applied to Non-Ferrous Metals and SSPC-PA 2, Procedure for Determining Conformance to Dry Coating Thickness Requirements. Both address the need to compensate …

Using Scanning Probe Technology to Measure Coating Thickness
Introduction Coating thickness measurement is one of the most common quality assessments made during industrial coating applications. SSPC-PA 2, Procedure for Determining Conformance to Dry Coating Thickness Requirements is frequently referenced in coating specifications. As SSPC-PA 2 has evolved over the past four decades, a number of procedures and measurement frequencies are referenced in both …

Calibration, Verification of Accuracy and Adjustment… Synonyms or Differences in Terminology?
“Do I have to maintain inspection gage calibration and certification? Why don’t they retain their calibration over time? Do I need to verify gage accuracy on a regular basis? How often? What is the difference between calibration and verification of accuracy?” These are common questions in the coatings industry. A simple answer is that without …
