1542-intro-image-2

The Elcometer 1542 Cross Hatch Adhesion Tester is ideal for measuring the cross hatch adhesion of coatings up to 250µm (9.8mils) on flat surfaces and test panels.

  • Summary

    • Summary

    • Measure on large or small panels by quickly changing the position of the guide wheel using the hexagonal wrench provided.

      Each cutter wheel consists of 8 cutting faces. When one face becomes worn, rotate the cutting wheel to the next face.

      The Elcometer 1542 is available with three different cutter spacings (1, 2 & 3mm) for a range of coating thickness.

      The Elcometer 1542 is available on its own (Basic Kit) or as a Full Kit which includes a brush, magnifier & ISO or ASTM adhesive tape. There are also Advanced Kits which include all three (1, 2 & 3mm) cross hatch adhesion testers, together with either ISO or ASTM adhesive tape.

      See 'Technical Information' for a full specification.
