Description
Check the substrate before you order. A ferrous (Fe) gauge measures coatings on steel and iron only — on aluminium, brass or stainless it will not read at all. A non-ferrous (NFe) gauge is the reverse. The dual Fe/NFe models cover both and detect the substrate automatically. This is the single most common cause of a returned coating gauge.
QNix Coating Thickness Gauge 4200/4500
A coating thickness gauge reads dry film thickness without cutting the coating — the measurement paint inspection, galvanising acceptance and warranty claims all turn on.

- Ferrous and Non-Ferrous, Fe/NFe: 0–3000 µm (QN-4500-FN)
- Ferrous, Fe: 0–3000 µm (QN-4200F)
Key Features
- Non-destructive: the reading is taken on the finished surface
