These small applicators have the benefit of two gaps machined into their working edges. They form very reproducible, parallel sided films, often used when comparing different samples.

 
Four Sided Applicator

Four Sided Applicator

This applicator has the advantage of combining ease of use with 4 gap sizes in one unit. For best results it should only be used on solid substrates which are smooth.

 
Multifilm Applicators

Multifilm Applicators

A very versatile applicator, giving the user a choice of 8 different film thicknesses in one unit. Simply select the appropriate gap, place the sample in the centre and draw down in the usual manner.

Centifugal Film Applicator " filmfuge "

Centifugal Film Applicator " filmfuge "

The filmfuge range of paint spinners provide exceptional quality and consistency in spin coating application, the resultant film thickness being largely independent of substrate flatness.

 
Sag Index Applicators

Sag Index Applicators

This applicator allows the sag resistance of coating to be visually evaluated. It applies a series of 10 parallel tracks of the coating to the substrate.
