The Accuracy YG268 Poly-Gloss 20/60/85° Gloss Meter is a portable instrument designed for measuring and controlling surface gloss on paints, coatings and different types of finishes.
The instrument measures gloss at three different angles: 20°, 60° and 85°. This configuration provides greater versatility for evaluating surfaces with different gloss levels, from matte finishes to high-gloss surfaces.
For inspection, position the instrument on a clean surface suitable for measurement and take readings according to the applicable quality-control procedure. Comparing different measurement points helps verify finish uniformity and identify variations in gloss.
Function Details
FUNCTION DETAILS
Three Measurement Angles Measures gloss at 20°, 60° and 85°, providing versatility for different types of surface finishes.
20° Measurement A geometry used to provide greater differentiation between surfaces with high gloss levels.
60° Measurement A general-purpose geometry commonly used as the reference measurement for a wide variety of surfaces.
85° Measurement A geometry used to provide better differentiation between low-gloss and matte surfaces.
Uniformity Control Allows different points, parts or production batches to be compared to identify variations in the final appearance of the coating.
Portable Instrument Designed for convenient measurements and inspections in the field, laboratory or production line.
Professional Use Suitable for quality control, coating inspection and surface-finish evaluation in different industrial processes.
