How it works- a permanent magnet is placed against a painted ferrous metal surface. Then spring tension is gradually increased until the magnet is pulled off. At that point a scale is read to indicate paint thickness. The magnet requires more force to pull off from thin paint than is required for thicker paint.
How does a dry film thickness gauge work?
A permanent magnet is mounted on a balanced arm and the force required to pull this magnet from the surface of the coating is a measure of the thickness of the coating. Force is applied through a helical spring attached to the balanced arm at one end and to a scale wheel at the other.
