Caliper Thickness Gauge

A dead weight type caliper thickness gauge is a precision instrument used to measure the thickness of materials like paper, plastic films, laminates, foils, and boards. It ensures consistent and reproducible measurements by applying a uniform pressure through a calibrated dead weight.

Key Features

  • Uniform Contact Pressure: The dead weight ensures a constant force is applied, eliminating operator variability.
  • High Accuracy: Often equipped with a digital display for precise readings.
  • Material Compatibility: Suitable for flexible and semi-rigid substrates.
Confirms to : ASTM D645 / ISO 534 / TAPPI T411
Lead Time : 2 weeks

Caliper Thickness Gauge

Dead Weight Type. For Flexible Materials.

This is a precision instrument to accurately measure the thickness of flexible and semi-rigid substrates like tissue, paper, board, corrugated board, plastic films, laminates, foils, etc.

A caliper thickness gauge mounted on the base with a Dead Weight on top so as to develop a uniform, reproducible constant pressure on the anvil. For repeatable test results, not dependant on Operator’s skill.
