BYK-Gardner - worldwide partner of the automotive, paint and plastic industries for quality control of colour, appearance and physical properties - is announcing the launch of byko-test Fe/NFe, and byko-test Lite, new dry film thickness measurement gages.

The byko-test Fe/NFe gage offers a unique solution to monitor environmental conditions while measuring dry film thickness. Air temperature and humidity sensors are built into the gage. The dew point temperature is displayed to determine if the conditions are right for applying the paint or coating.

The byko-test Lite is economically priced for routine applications without environmental condition measurements that the byko-test provides.

Both are designed with a large, rotating colour display readable in high or low-light conditions with the large operating buttons provide an easy-to-use solution for paint and coatings professionals.

The devices comply with SSPC PA-2 and ASTM D7091 for the measurement of coating thickness, and the byko-test also includes a SSPC mode to assist the operator on measurement protocols and calibration.

The new devices deliver accurate and repeatable measurement backed by BYK-Gardner quality and performance.
