HIGH-PRECISION INDUSTRIAL TOOL – Professional coating thickness gauge designed for industrial applications. Offers ultra-fine resolution of 0.001 mil for highly accurate, non-destructive measurements on a wide range of surfaces. DUAL MEASUREMENT PRINCIPLE – Uses magnetic induction for ferrous (Fe) substrates and eddy current effect for non-ferrous (NFe) substrates. Automatically identifies the base material for fast and precise operation. WIDE MEASUREMENT RANGE – Measures coatings on ferrous metals from 0–197 mils (0–5000 µm) and non-ferrous metals from 0–120 mils (0–3000 µm). Suitable for paint, powder coating, plating, anodizing, and more. ADVANCED SENSOR WITH RUBY TIP – Equipped with a high-precision measuring probe featuring a wear-resistant ruby tip for long-lasting accuracy and reliable contact on flat or curved surfaces. MULTIPLE UNIT OPTIONS – Easily switch between mils, microns (µm), and millimeters (mm) to match your workflow. Ensures accuracy with a typical deviation of less than ±3% +1 digit. PC CONNECTIVITY – Built-in data transfer capability for easy export of measurement records to a computer. Ideal for quality control, reporting, and industrial inspection documentation. DURABLE DESIGN – Shock-resistant housing with rubberized protective cover provides durability in harsh industrial environments. Compact and ergonomic for field or workshop use. VERSATILE PROFESSIONAL APPLICATIONS – Ideal for automotive paint inspection, marine coatings, fireproof coating thickness, manufacturing QA, and maintenance of metal structures and pipelines. The Industrial-818 Coating Thickness Gauge by VVV-Group is a professional yet easy-to-use paint thickness meter designed for maximum accuracy and everyday convenience. Built for automotive inspections, detailing studios, industrial workshops, and quality-control environments, this coating thickness gauge helps users quickly evaluate paint, plating, or protective coating thickness on any metal surface — ensuring reliable results in seconds. Engineered for simplicity, the Industrial-818 automatically detects the type of metal — ferrous (Fe) or non-ferrous (Al, Zn) — and adjusts the measuring method accordingly. This allows anyone, even without technical experience, to obtain precise readings instantly. The ergonomic body fits comfortably in the hand, while the large backlit display provides excellent visibility indoors, outdoors, or in workshop conditions. The intuitive one-button calibration and automatic shutdown make operation effortless, saving time during routine inspections. Despite its compact design, the Industrial-818 offers professional-grade performance with a resolution of 0.001 mil (0.1 µm) and measuring range up to 197 mils (5 mm) for ferrous metals and 118 mils (3 mm) for non-ferrous metals. It’s ideal for detecting repainting, filler, or corrosion on vehicle panels, verifying coating thickness before polishing, or controlling protective coatings in industrial production lines. This versatile paint thickness tester includes both quick zero calibration and multi-point calibration using the supplied foil set, ensuring repeatable precision across various coatings. Built-in statistics (mean, min, max, count, standard deviation) allow professionals to analyze coating uniformity in detail. Powered by standard AAA batteries, the device is always ready for field use — no special charging or setup required. Key Applications: Automotive inspections: Detect hidden repairs, body filler, or repainted panels before buying or detailing a car. Detailing studios: Measure paint thickness before polishing or ceramic coating to avoid over-correction. Industrial manufacturing: Check coating thickness on steel and aluminum parts for process control. Metal finishing & QA: Verify plating, anodizing, or protective coating layers in workshops or factories. Package Includes: Industrial-818 Coating Thickness Gauge Aluminum & iron substrate plates Calibration foil set (50, 100, 250, 500, 1000 µm) Shockproof carrying case 3 × AAA batteries English user manual Compact, rugged, and incredibly practical, the Industrial-818 combines precision with simplicity. Whether you’re a car buyer, mechanic, detailer, or quality-control engineer, this paint thickness meter provides a dependable, easy-to-use solution for fast and accurate coating measurements in any environment.
