Magna-Mike® 8500
The Panametrics® Magna-Mike® 8500 is a handheld thickness gage that uses magnetism to perform reliable and repeatable measurements on nonferrous materials. Using the Magna-Mike 8500 is very simple. Measurements are performed by holding the gage's magnetic probe to one surface of the test material and placing a small steel target ball on the opposite surface. A Hall-effect sensor built into the probe measures the distance between the probe tip and target ball. Measurements are instantly displayed as easy-to-read digital readings.
