Double Seam Inspection: Seam Thickness, Seam Height, Countersink Depth, Seam Gap, Body Hook, Cover Hook, Overlap

Portable and precise gloss meters, ideal for production and laboratories inspecting paint, coatings, plastics and automotive parts.

Accurately measure and record all critical aerosol can dimensions using the MDA-100 all-in-one multidimensional automatic can gauge. 

Accurately measure the apparent bulk density of powders, granules, and other divided solids using Ray-Ran's Apparent Bulk Density Apparatus. Each model is designed to meet the specific requirements of ASTM D1895 (Methods A, B or C) or ISO R60.

TQC Sheen Grindometers measure the particle size and fineness of grind in paints, inks, pigments, and coatings, helping coatings laboratories, ink producers, and R&D teams confirm dispersion quality before a batch moves on. Available in single, double, and wide-groove models with ranges from 0-15 µm to 0-500 µm and 2 µm accuracy.

Take a flow-time viscosity reading by hand-dipping straight into the paint pot with the TQC Sheen Dip/Immersion Viscosity Cup, according or similar to DIN 53211. Titanium anodized aluminum or stainless steel, six orifice sizes, dispatched within 2 days. 

The TQC Sheen Viscosity Cup ISO 2431 (Dip/Immersion) is a flow-time viscosity cup compliant with ISO 2431 - in dip/immersion form with a handle for point-of-use paint and coating viscosity checks directly from the container. Available in multiple orifice sizes covering the paint viscosity working range.

The CMC-KUHNKE Seam Stripper 1000 is an affordable and robust can seam stripper for teardown analysis. It’s a fast, efficient and a safe alternative to manual double seam strippers.  

The TQC Sheen Zahn Viscosity Cup is a dip/immersion type stainless steel flow-time viscosity cup compliant with ASTM D1084 and ASTM D4212 - available in 5 orifice numbers (1-5) covering kinematic viscosity from 20 to 1800 cSt for point-of-use paint, coating and ink QC on the production floor.

The TQC Sheen Krebs Viscometer DV2300 is a digital rotational viscometer that measures paint and coating viscosity using the KREBS method - a paddle rotating at a constant 200 rpm in a fixed volume of sample. It converts torque into three simultaneous outputs: Krebs units (KU), centipoise (cP) and grams (g), with automatic unit conversion shown on the LCD display. Used by paints and coatings QC laboratories, paint manufacturers, automotive OEM coating suppliers, printing ink producers, adhesive manufacturers and cosmetics QC labs, the DV2300 supports ASTM D562 Krebs-unit specifications alongside direct viscosity readings for a wide range of Newtonian and near-Newtonian fluids.

The TQC Sheen Adjustable Micrometer Applicators to be used for film application and drawdowns.

The TQC Sheen Digital Stopwatch is an accurate and reliable stopwatch, with a clear display, large digits, split times and a resolution to 1/100th of a second.

The TQC Sheen Quadruplex 4-Sided applicators designed to be used for film application and drawdowns.  For custom-sized applicators, click here for options.

Control the sag resistance and levelling of your inks and coatings with a Sag Index or Sag and Leveling Applicator from TQC Sheen. For custom-sized sag index applicators, click here for options.

TQC Sheen’s extensive range of Spiral Bar applicators are designed to be used for film application and drawdown. For custom-sized spiral bar applicators, click here for options.

The TQC Sheen Gel Strength Tester DV2400 measures yield strength and viscosity of thick paints, gels, putties, semi-solid materials and food products - the range of materials that fall outside the working range of conventional rotational viscometers. Used by paints and coatings QC laboratories, food producers (jams, jellies, dairy spreads), pharmaceutical and cosmetics QC labs (gels and ointments) and adhesive manufacturers, the DV2400 delivers reliable, repeatable yield-strength data via a rotating paddle spindle at 0.5-5.0 rpm. A four-line digital display with backlight, level adapter set, and interchangeable spindle range make it a straightforward addition to any QC workflow.
