    Product Description

    Certified Plastic Shims

    For use with magnetic, eddy-current and ultrasonic coating thickness gages.
    (Not intended for use with Type 1 magnetic pull-off type gages)

     

    Shims Overview  
    • Simulate a coating over a particular substrate material or shape. Gage performance can be conveniently verified on a regular basis as required by some international test methods
    • For use with all Type 2, electronic coating thickness gages
    • Protects the probe from damage or premature wear when placed over hot or abrasive surfaces
    • Can be placed on top of soft or tacky coating films to obtain thickness measurements without the gage probe depressing the coating film

    Certified Plastic Shims
    • Certified shims provide an economical alternative to Coated Metal Plates but have a reduced accuracy
    • Certified Plastic Shims are available in the following thicknesses (all thicknesses are approximate):
