The Elcometer 456 is an industrial dry film thickness gauge that delivers ±1% measurement accuracy on every surface type — smooth, rough, thin or curved. Thanks to temperature-stable probes and high reading resolution, you obtain reliable results even in demanding working conditions.

Ready to use instantly — factory calibrated

The Elcometer 456 is pre-calibrated at the factory, so you can start using it immediately after taking it out of the box. Ergonomic large buttons, a rotating colour LCD display and an intuitive menu system ensure a fast and convenient workflow in quality control.

Three models — choose according to your needs

The instrument is available in three models (B, S, T), where each successive one offers more functionality — from the entry-level model B to the top-of-the-range model T. All models support data transfer via USB or Bluetooth® to ElcoMaster® software and the mobile application, for immediate analysis and reporting.

Integrated measuring probe

Integrated coating thickness gauges are ideal for one-handed operation, as the wide footprint of the Bigfoot™ internal probe ensures greater stability during measurement — this enables consistent, repeatable and accurate dry film thickness results.

Common questions about this product.

Frequently asked questions

Which surface types can the Elcometer 456 measure on?
Elcometer 456 ensures ±1% measurement accuracy on every surface type – smooth, rough, thin or curved. The device operates on both ferromagnetic (FE) and non-ferromagnetic (NFE) metal.
Does the device require calibration before use?
No. The Elcometer 456 is factory pre-calibrated and ready to use immediately out of the box.
Which model should I choose if I need data transmission and reporting?
All models (B, S, T) support data transfer via USB or Bluetooth® to ElcoMaster® software and the mobile app. Model T is the top-tier, fully featured version, compatible with ElcoMaster® software and the mobile app.
How accurate is the Elcometer 456 in demanding working conditions?
The device ensures ±1% measurement accuracy along with high reading resolution and is temperature-stable, delivering reliable results even in challenging operating conditions.
Can the device be operated with one hand?
Yes, models with an integrated measuring probe are ideal for one-handed operation, as the wide footprint of the Bigfoot™ internal sensor ensures greater stability and repeatable results.
What Does the Elcometer 456 Coating Thickness Gauge Measure?
Elcometer 456 measures dry film thickness (DFT) — that is, the thickness of a paint layer, lacquer or other coating on a metal substrate. The device works on both ferromagnetic (FE) and non-ferromagnetic (NFE) metal.
