The TGD 3000 thickness gauge is a cost efficient and easy to use instrument for measuring the thickness of rubber of rubber-like materials. The constant force enables repeatable readings.
A standard thickness gauge for rubber which can be adapted to meet most international standards.
The gauge is manufactured to close tolerances and can be used as a quality control instrument. It is crucial that any thickness gauge applies a controlled pressure (kPa) to the material whose thickness is being measured.
The TGD 3000 uses a deadweight system removing the uncertainty of other mechanical devices. This system ensures that the thickness is being measured under the same controlled conditions for each sample.
