Description
Paint Inspection Gauge P.I.G. 455
A Simple Method for Determining a layer thickness
Testing with the P.I.G. 455 is based on the standardized wedge cut procedure: The coating is cut through
at a defined angle in such a way that the cut penetrates the substrate. The layer thickness is calculated
on the basis of the slope projection of the cut face, determined using a measuring microscope, and the
cutting angle. Similarly, the individual layer thickness of multi-layer systems can be ascertained.
Standards:
- EN ISO 2808
- DIN 50986
- ASTM D 4138
