Blue Technology P-13-AL Paint Thickness Gauge

The Blue Technology P-13-AL Paint Thickness Gauge is a professional instrument designed for precise measurement of paint and coating thickness on ferrous and non-ferrous substrates. With automatic substrate detection and a wide measurement range, it is ideal for automotive body shops, paint inspectors, and quality control professionals.

Advantages

Automatic substrate detection ensures accurate readings on steel, galvanized steel, and aluminum without manual adjustment. The built-in LED paint status indicator (green, yellow, red) quickly identifies original paint, second layer, or filler. A backlit LCD display, built-in flashlight, and UV lamp facilitate use in low-light conditions. Memory storage for up to 30 readings and sound signal for measurement completion enhance efficiency.
