The Elcometer 500 Coating Thickness Gauge accurately measures the thickness of coatings on concrete and other similar substrates* - non destructively.
Fast and accurate, the Elcometer 500 Coating Thickness Gauge takes repeatable and reproducible dry film thickness measurements of coatings on concrete up to 10mm‡ thick – without damaging the coating.
Taking over 60 readings per minute in standard mode and 140+ readings per minute in scan mode; the Elcometer 500 Coating Thickness Gauge allows users to inspect more coatings in less time. With a choice of intelligent, ergonomic probes, designed for continuous use and field replaceable probe tips you can inspect all day, everyday.
The built in signal strength indicator on the Elcometer 500 Coatings on Concrete Gauge prevents false or incorrect readings, as the gauge only displays the coating thickness measurement if the signal strength indicator goes green.
Robust, ergonomic and sealed against dirt and water, equivalent to a rating of IP54, the Elcometer 500 Concrete Coating Thickness Gauge has been designed to work in harsh environments.
Incredibly easy to use, the Elcometer 500 Coating Thickness Gauge for concrete can be used in accordance with ASTM D6132, SSPC PA9 & ISO 2808 Method 10.
Compatible with ElcoMaster® software and ElcoMaster® Mobile App, individual coating thickness measurements can be transferred via USB or Bluetooth® to PC or a mobile device for analysis and instant report generation.

The conical mandrel bend tester is used to determine properties of a coating. Resistance to cracking
detachment from its substrate and its elongation during the test. Conical mandrel test is also known as
standard method for assessing the flexibility and the adhesion properties of coatings when these are
subjected to bending stresses This is accomplished by bending the test material around a conically
shaped metal bar. The conical mandrel bending test is a commonly used for testing for painted or
coated panels. Conical Mandrel Bend Tester is widely recommended to test the resistance of a paint, coating, varnish
to evaluate cracking or detachment from a metal panel. It is suitable for use with metal panels up to
0.8mm thick (flexible substrates up to 5mm thickness) e.g. polythenes or synthetic rubber. The
apparatus consists of a steel mandrel 203mm in length and tapering from 38mm to 3mm in diameter. It will accommodate test panels up to 19cm x 11cm in size. A graduated scale on the clamping bar
indicates the mandrel diameter at which failure has occurred. When this diameter is added to the
thickness of the panel used, the percentage elongation can be calculated. Conical mandrel detects
common failures of coating shows cracking or flaking after bending. Can be used in accordance with
DIN ISO EN 6860, ASTM D522, BS 3900 E11, DIN 53150

The LS239 Automotive Paint Meter is an advanced car paint/coating thickness gauge used to measure the thickness of paint and coatings on vehicle body panels. It’s ideal for:
Used car inspections (detect repainting or previous repairs)
Body shop quality control
Dealership vehicle assessments
Car enthusiast or inspector use
It works on both ferrous (steel) and non-ferrous (aluminium) substrates and can identify metallic putty/filler and galvanized layers, giving you insight into vehicle condition beyond what the eye can see.
🔥 Key Features
📊 Dual Modes: Simple & Expert
Simple Mode: Quick, go-to paint measurements.
Expert Mode: Designed for professional inspectors — lets you test 19 car components and store up to 999 vehicle records, with up to 6 measurements per component.
📱 Smart Bluetooth & Reporting
Built-in Bluetooth lets you connect to a mobile app or WeChat mini-program to record measurements, generate inspection reports, and share them easily on your phone.
🟡 Three-Color Backlight Feedback
The backlight changes color based on measured thickness:
White: Normal range
Yellow: Slightly high/low range
Red: Severe deviation, outside limits, or ferrous putty detected
This makes results easy to interpret at a glance.
⏱️ Fast & Accurate
Quick measurement: ~0.3 s per reading.
Automatic substrate recognition: Detects steel, aluminium, galvanized iron, and non-metallic body parts.
Custom alarm values can be set to trigger when measurements exceed thresholds you define.
