Overview of Plastic Shims
- Simulate a coating
over a particular substrate material or shape.
- Gage performance can
be conveniently verified on a regular basis as
required by some international test methods.
- For use with all
Type 2, electronic coating thickness gages.
- Protects the probe
from damage or premature wear when placed over hot
or abrasive surfaces.
- Can be placed on top
of soft or tacky coating films to obtain thickness
measurements without the gage probe depressing the
coating film.
