Pocket-Sized Precision with the PosiPen

Quality inspectors often need to measure coating thickness in tight spaces where electronic gauges fail. Hot surfaces, small parts, and remote field locations require a specialized, highly durable tool. The PosiPen by DeFelsko offers an ideal, purely mechanical solution that delivers instant results without electronics or batteries.

Why Inspectors Rely on the PosiPen

The PosiPen features a unique, pen-like design with a powerful, permanent magnet. It utilizes a precise internal spring to measure the force required to pull the magnet from a steel surface.

Key advantages of this unique instrument include:

  • Extreme Versatility: It measures accurately on extremely small, hot, or hard-to-reach surfaces where other probes cannot fit.

  • Triple-Target Usability: It works perfectly when placed flat, upside down, or horizontally on the steel substrate.

  • Rugged Mechanical Design: The durable housing resists water, oil, and dust to survive harsh manufacturing environments.

  • No Calibration Required: The mechanical system retains its factory accuracy indefinitely, saving you valuable setup time.

PosiPen Technical Specifications

Review the measurement capabilities to see how this pocket gauge fits your industrial workflow.

Model Variant Range (Mils) Range (Microns) Primary Application
PosiPen Scale A 0.25 to 20 mils 5 to 500 µm General Industrial Coatings
PosiPen Scale B 0.5 to 6 mils 13 to 150 µm Electroplating & Thin Films

Simple Steps for On-Site Inspection

To start, place the magnetic tip firmly onto your coated steel part. Pull the pen housing away from the surface slowly and smoothly in a straight line. Watch the integrated red pointer slide along the scale, and read the exact thickness value right before the magnet releases.

Pro Tip: Use the PosiPen on freshly painted items still inside baking ovens to catch thickness errors early.
