TMG - High Precision Thickness Gauges
Important note: The following thickness gauges have been discontinued and replaced by the TMG model:
- CTG-ASTM D1777-2
- FTG-ISO4593
- LTG-ISO2589
- RTG-ISO23529
- TTG-ISO-5084
The TMG series of thickness gauges provide extremely accurate measurements for a wide range of materials. These universal devices are notable for their ease of operation and robust design, adaptable to numerous ASTM, DIN, EN, and ISO standards thanks to their modular system.
The TMG is designed for applications such as elastomers, textiles, leather, nonwovens, films, rubber, and more. Additionally, high-quality materials are used in their manufacture, such as laboratory-quality granite bases and stainless steel components, ensuring durability and corrosion resistance even in humid environments.
Available Models:
- TMG-1: Ideal for textiles and soft materials.
- TMG-2: Perfect for medium materials such as rubber and leather.
- TMG-3: Designed for harder materials and heavy industrial applications.
Supported Standards:
- ISO-5084, ASTM D 1777 for textiles.
- ISO-23529, ASTM D3767 for rubber/elastomers.
- DIN EN ISO 12625-3, ASTM D 1777 for waterproofing membranes and more.
Key Features:
- Extreme Precision: Thanks to its lifting trigger system, the TMG gauges ensure precise measurement by applying the specific pressure required by each measuring standard.
- High-Quality Construction: With laboratory granite bases and stainless steel and aluminum components, the TMGs offer a long lifespan and are ideal for humid environments.
- Modular Versatility: Adaptable to numerous standards without the need for multiple devices thanks to its preconfigured settings for ISO, ASTM, DIN, and EN standards.
- Easy to Use: Designed for straightforward operation, ideal for testing in laboratories or production environments.
Key Benefits:
- Reliable Results: With consistent measurement and guaranteed measurement pressure, the TMG ensures reproducible long-term results.
- Standard Adaptability: Capable of conforming to multiple industrial standards, making the TMG a versatile choice for meeting rigorous quality requirements.
