QNix® Coating Thickness Gauges: Fast, Precise, and User-Friendly

QNix® 4500 / 4200 is our recommendation for corrosion protection in challenging conditions, industrial painting, and automotive assessments.

The QNix® 4000 series coating thickness gauges provide precise and quick measurement results, are user-friendly, and exceptionally durable.

Looking for a versatile coating thickness gauge that has proven itself with customers time and time again? Can you do without memory of measurement values or software-supported evaluations in your application area?

If so, QNix 4200 (for Fe measurements) or QNix® 4500 (for Fe and NFe measurements) is the right coating thickness gauge for you.

Reliable measurement results for Fe and NFe metals

For years, thousands of users worldwide have relied on the QNix® 4000 series coating thickness gauges. As a user, you can also benefit from these successful models.

QNix® 4200 provides reliable measurement results for steel and iron (Fe). QNix® 4500 enables measurements on steel, iron (Fe), and non-ferrous metals (NFe), such as aluminum, copper, and brass.

Wide range of applications and user-friendliness

QNix® devices from the 4000 series are available in various versions, including integrated or cable probes and with an extended measuring surface up to 5 mm. This allows for a very wide range of applications as needed.

We want to make your work as a user easier. Therefore, all QNix® coating thickness gauges operate according to our user-friendly principle: simply position, measure, and read.
