Elcometer 456 Separate Probe Options

A wide range of probe types and scale ranges are available for the Elcometer 456 separate gauges.

STANDARD PROBES (F, NF and FNF)

Available in Standard Right Angle or Telescopic options and are suitable for almost all your coating thickness requirements.

MINIATURE PROBES (F and NF)

Ideal for taking measurements in hard to reach places, on small surface areas and on concrete reinforcement bars. Miniature probes are available in Straight, Right Angle and 45º options. All miniature probes are available in either 45mm (1.77") or 150mm (5.90") probe length.

PINIP™ PROBES (F, NF and FNF)

The Plug-In Integral Probe (PINIP™), screws into the base of any Elcometer 456 separate gauge to transform the separate gauge into an integral unit for single handed operations. Its 'Bigfoot™' Probe gives greater stability on large surface areas.

WATERPROOF PROBES (F)

Ideal for taking measurements in wet conditions or underwater up to depths of 10m (32'8"). Waterproof probes are available with standard, 5m (16'4") and 15m (49'2") probe lead lengths.
