Ideal for use in the laboratory, on the production line or the construction site, calibration foils or 'shims' are the most convenient way of creating a coating thickness standard on your substrate material or form. The ideal method for adjusting the calibration of your coating thickness gauge to ensure the greatest possible accuracy.

In some cases, however, it may be difficult, or impractical to obtain an uncoated substrate. For this reason Elcometer have provided a range of Zero Test Plates. These test plates, when used in conjunction with a set of foils, are ideal to test a coating thickness gauge's functionality and calibration.

• Metric and Imperial values displayed on each foil

• Available individually or in foil sets - with or without Zero Plate

• Available as either a precision foil (±1% accuracy) or as a nominal foil (±2% accuracy).

• Each foil is uniquely serial numbered and can be certified traceable to National Standards

• Available in thicknesses from 12.5mm to 20mm (0.5 to 790 mils).

These hard wearing and durable coated standards are mounted in an attractive protective folder and provide the user with an ideal method to accurately measure the performance of their coating thickness gauge.

• ±2% Accuracy, supplied with calibration certificate as standard

• Available in Ferrous (F) and Non-Ferrous (NF) substrates

• Two piece, three piece, and four piece versions available

• Each standard is individually serial numbered for traceability to National Standards

• Can be re-certified by Elcometer to meet your ISO requirements

• Standards available in a range of thicknesses

• Special thicknesses can be supplied to meet your particular needs
