From the development of coatings, inks & cosmetics in the laboratory to testing during the production process, quick and precise measurement of the particle size of the material (Dispersion) and volumetric mass (Density) are essential measurement techniques required for reliable and repeatable formulations.

Elcometer’s stringent manufacturing standards ensure that the highest level of precision and quality is maintained for all its gauges in order to comply with the requirements of the industries where the grinding process is involved, particularly in the fields of wet paints and powder, varnishes, printing inks and cosmetics.

The comprehensive range of Elcometer fineness of grind gauges consists of stainless steel blocks with a precision ground scraper. Each block has either one or two channels, precision ground in a uniformly increasing depth from zero at one end to a specified depth at the other, identified by the scale on the gauge.
