Byko-test 8500
Byko-test 8500 is a BYK-Gardner dry film thickness gage designed to measure dry coating thickness on various metal substrates using a non-destructive method. This instrument helps users perform coating quality control with greater flexibility, accuracy, and repeatability, especially in industrial coatings, protective coatings, automotive coatings, powder coatings, and metal finishing applications.
In coating processes, dry film thickness is a critical parameter because it directly affects substrate protection, corrosion resistance, surface appearance, material consumption, and compliance with technical specifications. Byko-test 8500 features a modular design with exchangeable probes, allowing it to be used for a wide range of measurement requirements on substrates such as copper, aluminum, zinc, brass, titanium, ferrous, and non-ferrous metals.
Byko-test 8500 is equipped with an illuminated graphical display, easy-to-use keypad, one-hand operation, 180° flip display, multi-language support, automatic and user-specific calibration, durable ruby probe tip, and V-groove probe for measuring cylindrical parts. The instrument is available in Basic version for standard measurement and evaluation, and Premium version with batch memory, custom calibration memory, software, wireless data transfer, and single or continuous measurement modes.
