This versatile instrument provides an easy, non-destructive method for directly measuring the thickness of a carpet pile. It is also the basis of International Standard; ISO 10834:1992 (BS).
● Measurements are instantaneous
● Opportunity for operator error is reduced, providing high accuracy and reproducibility of measurements
● Carpets can be measured in any horizontal location
● The backing thickness of small specimens can also be measured directly using a simple bridge
● The instrument is small and portable
Test Method
The gauge is positioned on the carpet and six loaded needles penetrate the pile until they make contact with the denser backing. The pile surface is located by a flat probe. The pile thickness can then be read directly from the digital gauge. PC compatibility (RS 232C) enables logging of thickness measurements for on-line, deferred data or statistical analysis. (Interface cable and software available separately).
