Elcometer 406, 60 Degree Gloss Meter
Gloss is measured by directing a constant power light beam at an angle to test the surface and monitoring the reflected light. Different surfaces require different reflective angles.
Elcometer glossmeters cover the range necessary to measure any surface, from high gloss to mat, providing a quantitative value to gloss measurement.
Increasingly specifications and standards require a physical assessment of gloss. Gloss measurement is necessary to monitor the uniformity, compatibility, or possibly the deterioration of any protective gloss finish. The Elcometer 406 Novo-Gloss Mini Glossmeter is available in 60° Statistical and Dual Angle20/60° Statistical versions.
