Elcometer 456 Interchangeable Probes – Precision, Range & Reliability
Industry-Leading Probe Solutions for Dry Film Thickness Measurement
The Elcometer 456 Probes are engineered to deliver highly accurate, repeatable, and temperature-stable measurements in even the most challenging inspection environments. Designed to work seamlessly with the Elcometer 456 gauge, our wide range of probes—from ferrous and non-ferrous to dual FNF and high-temperature models—ensures you have the right tool for any surface, curvature, or coating type.
✅ Key Features of Elcometer 456 Probes:
-
Fully Interchangeable Design
Swap probes on the fly without recalibrating your gauge—maximizing uptime and flexibility. -
Comprehensive Measurement Ranges
Get readings on 0–20 mils up to 0–1220 mils, cover virtually every coating thickness need. -
Specialist Probe Types
Standard, Mini, Right-Angle, Telescopic, Scan, Anodising, Waterproof, Soft Coating, Hi-Temp PINIP™ and more to tackle any geometry or environment. -
Patented Offset Calibration
Automatically compensates for probe cap wear, ensuring sustained accuracy over thousands of readings. -
Rugged & Reliable
Armoured cables, sealed housings and replaceable end-caps stand up to dust, water, impact and extreme temperatures (up to 250 °C). -
High-Speed Scan & Auto-Repeat Modes
Achieve 70+ readings per minute in spot-mode or over 140 readings/minute with scan probes—ideal for large-area inspections.
🔍 Probe Selection & Applications
- Ferrous (F) Probes – For non-magnetic coatings on steel substrates.
- Non-Ferrous (N) Probes – For non-conductive coatings on aluminium & other non-ferrous metals.
- Dual FNF Probes – Auto-detect substrate type and switch between ferrous/non-ferrous modes.
- Scan Probes – Rapidly scan large surfaces; view live average, min/max trends and store full data sets. Only works with Top Model Gauges
- Specialty Probes – Angled, telescopic, mini and soft-coating probes to reach restricted areas and delicate surfaces.
- High-Temperature PINIP™ Probes – Measure coatings on substrates up to 250 °C (480 °F) with integrated cap-over-foil calibration.
