byko-cut Universal

The byko-cut universal is a multi-purpose paint testing instrument that measures paint coating thickness, paint adhesion, and coating hardness.
Portable instrument providing sufficient accuracy for laboratory use but also usable at construction sites and in workshops. Ideal for customer service technicians and demonstrations.
Depending on requirements, it can be equipped with the appropriate cutting edges.

  • Measuring film thickness in the range of 2 - 2000 µm (1/8 - 80 mils) on every substrate (steel, non-ferrous metal,plastics, wood, etc.)
  • Capable of multi-layer film thickness analysis
  • Adhesion test by means of cross-cut test in accordance with ASTM D 3359; DIN 53 151
  • Indentation hardness test in accordance with ISO 2815 (Buchholz)
  • Microscopic research for pores, pits, cracks, blisters, flaking, intercoat adhesion of the individual film in coat systems, and quality control of the pretreatment of the substrate
