New eight-sided applicator

8-Gap Stainless Steel Film Applicator – Consistent and reproducible coating results with this high-precision 8-gap stainless steel film applicator. Designed specifically for paint technicians, laboratories, and quality control testing, this tool combines eight film thickness options in a single, easy-to-use instrument.

The octagonal body design allows quick rotation through 90° angles to select the next gap size—providing exceptional flexibility during multiple coating tests. The precision-ground edges ensure uniform film thickness across flat, firm surfaces, making it ideal for use on glass panels or metal substrates.

Manufactured from corrosion-resistant stainless steel 440C, this applicator delivers outstanding durability, hardness, and dimensional stability, even under frequent laboratory use. It is fully compliant with ASTM D823, ensuring reliable performance for standardized paint and coating test methods.
