How to Measure Wet Film Thickness using Elcometer Wet Film Wheels

The Elcometer 3230 Wet Film Wheel is a high precision, accurate and easy to use instrument which measures the wet film thickness of coatings. A wet film wheel has two circular outer wheels which rest on the substrate, and a smaller central wheel which is eccentric relative to the outer wheels. By rolling the gauge through a wet coating, the central wheel eventually touches the film. This point on the scale indicates the thickness. This Elcometer 3230 Coil Coating Wet Film Wheel is designed for use in the coil coating process. The outer wheels are knurled to allow measurements to be taken on slippery coatings or on fast moving substrates. Elcometer offer a wide range of wet film wheels to measure wet films of various thicknesses.
