Paint / Coating Testing Instruments & Inspection Kits

We are engaged in manufacturing and exporting high quality Analogue Surface Profile Gauge that helps in accurate measurement of peak to valley height of blast-cleaned surfaces as per the ASTM D-4417 Method B standard. This is an important tool in evaluation of surface cleanliness or degree surface preparation before painting.

To start with the measurement, the gauge is first set to zero with a glass zero plate. Once the needle touches the glass plate, the foot is placed on the blasted profile. The foot rests on top of the peaks and the sharp stylus reaches to the bottom of the valley. It allows the gauge to display the peak to valley height. It helps in making a number of measurements along with the average.

Moreover, the gauge is also useful in measuring the effects of corrosion, i.e. pitting and cavity depth. We supply these in carrying case with glass zero plate.

Our expert professionals enable us to produce an efficient range of Bresle Test Kits, which is also known as Chloride Test Kit or Salt Test Kit. This kit evaluates chlorides or/and salt on surface of steel surface. Bresle Test Kit is provided with all the requisite items like the syringes, distilled water, bresle test patches, calibration solution and conductivity meter that are used to test for surface contaminants and soluble salt on blasted surfaces as per ISO 8502-6 & ISO 8502-9.

The effect of many coatings gets failed due to the presence of salts like chlorides and salts that contaminate the surface before the coating application. Therefore, application of chloride and soluble salt becomes essential to test. Due to their significance, these salts are recommended by the prominent users of marine vessels, offshore, pipe coating, oil & gas and steel structures among others. It is convenient and fast to perform bresle test at site, shop and other locations by using the bresle test kit. It is a highly economical and effective method that is used before the coating applications just after surface blasting at number of locations.

Working:

• Bresle patch is attached to the surface

• Distilled water is injected into the bresle patch with a syringe and then extracted

• This process is repeated ten cycles of injecting

• Extracting the liquid in the bresle patch.

• This liquid is then measured with the conductivity meter

• It will measure the quantity of salts in both mg/m² and µg/cm² (ppm)

• It is provided with a user manual to give easy conversions.
  
  
  

These products also comply with ISO 8502-9, which is associated with the conductometric determination of soluble salts.

We offer our clients Chloride Test Kit, which is useful in the situation where many coatings have failed from chlorides accumulated on a surface through contaminated abrasive. It is a complete and easy to use abrasive test kit that makes even a least experienced tester to get accurate results. This is a self contained, accurate, and reliable test kit that provides results in minutes. Chloride Test "A" is used when specifications require reliable, consistent and safe testing of abrasives.

This kit is based on ASTM D4940 principals but it provides the additional value of chloride ion specific measurements.

Significance:

• Cross contamination is eliminated through one time use of individual components.
• The components are pre-measured to ascertain accurate results in parts per million.
• No temperature correction is required with a temperature range from 41^o F to 176^o F.  

Our array of Chloride Test kit "Water" is a complete, ready to use test kit that makes even an inexperienced person to get an accurate measure of chloride levels. This test was developed for field and laboratory use and can remove cross contamination from test to test through one time use of individual components. It gives accurate results in parts per million and does not require any temperature correction from 41°F to 176°F.

Used for water and many other liquids, CHLOR*TEST "W" helps in obtaining accurate ion specific measurement of chlorides from 0 - 2,000 ppm in any place including laboratory or a job-site. Each kit comprises everything required to perform five (5) individual tests.

Test Water For:

• Pressure Washing
• UHP Water Jetting
• Wet Abrasive Blasting 

Our company offers an efficient range of Coating Thickness Meter, which is cost-effective, pocket sized coating thickness meter. It is provided with a user friendly back-lit display so that it can operate in dimly lit locations. It can be easily operated with single keypad operation and gets automatically switched off when no reading is being taken.
