Wet Film Thickness Gauge for Conformal Coating Applications

Quick and Easy Measurement for Process Control

Operators use wet film thickness measurement as a quick, reliable, and low-cost way to control conformal coating application while it is still wet.  By checking coverage before curing or drying, they can spot issues early, make immediate adjustments, and prevent costly mistakes. As a result, teams reduce waste, improve accuracy, and keep the process consistent from start to finish.

Why Use Wet Film Thickness Gauges?

Wet film gauges add value in several common scenarios. For example, you may find dry measurements difficult or destructive, so a wet reading avoids scrap and delay. Moreover, avoiding over-application helps you control cost, weight, and performance. Finally, during spraying or brushing, operators gain real-time feedback and adjust settings on the spot.

How Wet Film Thickness Gauges for Conformal Coating Work

First, place the gauge directly on the wet coating surface so the stepped teeth touch the film. Next, read the first tooth that makes contact to capture the wet film thickness. Then, multiply that value by the coating’s resin-solids percentage to estimate the final dry film thickness.

Because the method takes only seconds, production staff keep coatings within specification without waiting for cure or resorting to destructive tests.
