Thickness Gauge Prodig-tech GL-PRO-6-FAZ — coating thickness meter for Fe/Al/Zn, probe on cable

Prodig-tech GL-PRO-6-FAZ is a coating thickness gauge designed to measure paint and coating thickness on ferrous (Fe), aluminum (Al) and zinc (Zn) substrates. The instrument includes a probe on a cable for flexible positioning, direct digital readout of thickness values and support for multilayer coatings. Intended for inspection, quality control and maintenance tasks, this meter provides repeatable measurements for surface preparation and corrosion-protection checks across automotive, industrial and structural applications.

Advantages

The GL-PRO-6-FAZ offers a compact handheld body with a cable-mounted probe that enables access to confined or awkward measurement points while preserving stable contact. It provides selective measurement modes for ferrous and non-ferrous substrates and reads multilayer coatings without requiring complex setup. The device delivers immediate numeric thickness results, reducing measurement time during inspection rounds and routine quality control.

Suitable for

• Automotive bodyshop measurements and paint inspection
• Industrial coating quality control and production line checks
• Maintenance and corrosion-protection inspections on structures and machinery
• Surface preparation verification before repainting or treatment

Key specifications

• Measurement capability: coatings on ferrous (Fe), aluminum (Al) and zinc (Zn) substrates
• Probe type: cable-mounted probe for flexible positioning
• Display: direct digital readout of thickness values
• Coating compatibility: supports single and multilayer coatings
• Typical use: handheld operation for spot checks and inspection routines

How to use

Place the probe tip perpendicular to the substrate surface and ensure consistent contact for each measurement. Select the appropriate substrate mode (ferrous or non-ferrous) if required by the device controls, then take the reading from the digital display. For multilayer coatings, take several measurements across the area of interest to confirm uniformity. Store and compare results as part of inspection records or quality control documentation.

Usage recommendations

Calibrate the instrument periodically according to the manufacturer’s instructions and use reference standards for the substrate types measured. Clean probe tip and substrate surfaces before measurement to avoid debris or contamination affecting results. When measuring curved or rough surfaces, take multiple readings and use the probe cable’s flexibility to maintain consistent probe orientation and contact pressure.
