Sag index applicators

This applicator is specially designed for sag resistance evaluation. Within a film width of 90 cm, 10 gaps are machined with progressive thickness in increments of 25 µm, providing parallel coatings tracks on the sam pie. The test panel is held vertically with the thickest at the bottom, after application. The sag index can be determined by the first track wh ich does not sag onto the next track below. The step interval of each track indicates a sag of 25%.
