Elcometer 224 Digital Surface Profile Gauge
Fast, accurate surface-profile gauge for flat or curved surfaces up to
500 μm (20 mils) with ±5% accuracy.
Built for the field with a rugged IP64 body and a long-life
tungsten carbide tip, it captures 50+ readings/min and
shows real-time stats and alarms so you can get in, get the numbers, and move on.
Choose Integral or Separate probes; step up to
Model T for memory, batching, and Bluetooth® to ElcoMaster®.
Key Features
Peak-to-valley profile measurement on flat and convex surfaces (0–500 μm / 0–20 mils)
±5% or ±5 μm accuracy with 1 μm (0.1 mil) resolution
High-contrast 2.4" color display with auto-rotate; large buttons for gloved hands
Flat plates and convex/curved blasted steel and similar substrates, from 0 to 500 μm (0–20 mils).
What’s the difference between Model B and Model T?
Model B covers core measurements and on-screen stats; Model T adds Bluetooth®, large onboard memory, batching and trend graph review for faster reporting.
How fast does it read?
Typically 50+ readings per minute (about 25/min with the convex probe).
How durable is the gauge?
IP64-equivalent dust/water resistance, impact-resistant casing, solvent-resistant screen, and a replaceable tungsten carbide tip designed for long service life.
