News — Coating Thickness

Selecting the correct probe is one of the most important steps in obtaining accurate, repeatable coating thickness measurements.  While modern coating thickness gauges make testing fast and straightforward, choosing the wrong probe for your application can lead to inaccurate readings or measurements that simply aren't possible. Fortunately, probe selection doesn't have to be complicated. By understanding the material you're measuring and the type of coating you're inspecting, you can quickly determine which BRK coating thickness gauge probe is best suited for your application. Why Probe Selection Matters Coating thickness gauges work by measuring the distance between the probe and the...

What's the difference between the BRK CTN-210B, CTN-210C and CTN-300 coating thickness meters? The CTN-210B, CTN-210C and CTN-300 are all dual-technology coating thickness meters but serve slightly different roles: CTN-210B• Professional portable coating thickness meter• Uses magnetic induction and eddy current measurement• Designed for coatings on ferrous and non-ferrous metals• Supports interchangeable probes with ranges up to about 10,000 µm depending on probe type CTN-210C • Economical portable coating thickness meter• Uses magnetic induction and eddy current measurement• Designed for coatings on ferrous and non-ferrous metals• Supports interchangeable probes with ranges up to about  10,000 µm depending on probe type...
