UCT-180C Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge
Fast, precise thickness measurement of metals, plastics, ceramics and other ultrasonic-conductive materials
All BRK meters and probes ship direct from the manufacturer and require 5-10 business days for shipping.
The BRK UCT-180C Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge delivers fast, precise thickness measurement of metals, plastics, ceramics and other ultrasonic-conductive materials without damaging the test surface. Engineered with advanced microprocessor control, it provides consistent accuracy for corrosion monitoring, quality control and structural inspection applications.
Designed for real-world industrial use, the UCT-180C supports both single-point and scanning measurement modes, allowing users to capture spot readings or continuously track thickness variations across surfaces. With a measurement rate of up to 10 readings per second in scan mode, it is well-suited for identifying thinning, pitting and material loss in pipelines, tanks and structural components.
The gauge supports a wide range of interchangeable probes, including standard, small-diameter, coarse-grain and high-temperature probes, enabling accurate measurement across different materials and surface conditions. This flexibility makes it effective for applications ranging from fine tubing to heavy cast materials.
Its rugged, portable design ensures reliable operation in harsh environments, with an operating temperature range of -20°C to 50°C and a compact, lightweight form factor for field inspections.
