DeFelsko PosiTest DFT Ferrous Coating Thickness Gauge, Steel Substrates, 0-40 mils (0-1000 microns)
Details
The PosiTest DFT Ferrous is a compact, low-cost dry film thickness gauge for non-magnetic coatings such as paint and powder on steel. It uses the same proven probe technology as the PosiTector 6000 in a simpler package, making it a good fit for powder coaters, painting contractors, inspectors and automotive refinishers who need reliable readings without memory or data transfer.
Features
- Measures on ferrous metals
- Fast, repeatable readings at 60+ per minute
- Ready to measure out of the box; Zero or 1-point adjustment for difficult applications
- Running average of up to 99 readings on screen (readings are not stored)
- Wear-resistant ruby-tipped probe with V-groove for curved parts
- High-contrast color display with adjustable brightness and auto-rotation with lock
- Simple icon-based menu; mils/microns switchable
- Long-form Certificate of Calibration traceable to PTB; 2-year warranty

Compatibility
Measures non-magnetic coatings on steel and iron only. For aluminum, brass and other non-ferrous metals choose the PosiTest DFT Combo (DFTC). Verify with certified standard S2 and zero plate STDZSTL.
PosiTest DFT vs. PosiTector 6000
The PosiTest DFT has no reading memory, data download or printing. Choose a PosiTector 6000 when you need higher resolution and accuracy, stored readings, PosiSoft software, interchangeable probes or, on Advanced models, SSPC-PA 2 mode and wireless connectivity.
