Material Thickness Gauge
Conveniently performs thickness measurement on rubber, fabrics, foams, tapes/films and a wide assortment of other soft materials Range: 0-1 inch (0-25 mm)
Range: 0-1 inch (0-25 mm)
Resolution: 0.0001" (0.002 mm)
The MTG Digital Contact Thickness Gage accurately measures thickness of textiles, non-wovens, technical fabrics and many other materials. Using specific diameter presser foot (feeler) and mass (weight) it can measure according to ASTM D1777, D461, D3767, D751-06, ISO 9863-1 and many other international testing standards. The MTG thickness tester features adjustable air dampening to ensure the presser foot is lowered at the same rate every time for excellent repeatability.
The MTG System is supplied with a 16 mm diameter pressor foot and 212 g mass. This configuration is commonly used for measurement of rubber materials with a hardness of 35 IRHD or below. Optional presser foot diameters and related weights are available and custom sizes can be supplied to accommodate your specifications. Refer to details below.
The certified digital indicator includes 3 SPC data output formats, English or Metric display, auto power off, and a left-hand lifting lever. The indicator is fitted on an 8 inch (200 mm) tall column to allow the indicator to be raised or lowered to accommodate different size test specimens. The 6"x6"x 2" (150 x 160 x 50 mm) laboratory grade certified granite base offers a smooth and extremely hard reference plane for precise and repeatable measurements.
For those requiring data output for recording and quality documentation purposes, a serial output cable and windows-based software program is optionally available.
Custom Weights and Footers can be made to meet a wide range of specifications. Contact us for more info.
