Getting a coating job right doesn't stop at spraying or blasting. It depends on measurable checks at every stage of the process, from surface profile before blasting to dry film thickness after the final coat. Without accurate inspection data, even a well-executed coating job can fail early, leading to costly rework, warranty disputes, or non-compliance with project specifications. Jetblast International Equipment is a trusted supplier of DeFelsko inspection instruments in Dubai and across the UAE. We offer a complete range of equipment for coating thickness, surface profile, environmental monitoring, adhesion, gloss, contamination, and hardness testing. Each instrument is designed for fast, repeatable measurement in demanding field and workshop conditions, and supports compliance with ISO, ASTM, SSPC, and NACE standards. This makes it easier for contractors, fabricators, and paint applicators across the region to verify their work at every stage and hand over documented, defensible results.
At Jetblast International Equipment, we offer these DeFelsko instruments individually or as pre-configured inspection kits, each suited to a specific stage of the surface preparation and coating process. Every gauge ships with a Certificate of Calibration traceable to NIST or PTB, and most models are IP65-rated for weatherproof, dustproof, water-resistant use on active job sites. Readings can be viewed, stored, and reported through DeFelsko's PosiSoft software ecosystem, giving teams a consistent record across every stage of a project.
PosiTector 6000 Series
The PosiTector 6000 measures coating thickness on any metal substrate using interchangeable ferrous, non-ferrous, and combination probes, with cabled probes, microprobes, and Xtreme Series probes available for hot or rough surfaces. Standard models capture fast readings, 60 or more per minute, up to 90+ in FAST mode. Also, they store up to 1,000 readings per probe on a large 2.8" impact-resistant color touchscreen. Advanced models go further, storing up to 250,000 readings from multiple probes across 1,000 batches and sub-batches, with three scan modes reaching 180+ readings per minute, plus Bluetooth and WiFi data transfer. Specialised probe options include a Duplex probe for measuring individual zinc and paint layers in a duplex coating system, and a Thick probe series for epoxy, rubber, and fireproofing coatings, which are useful for teams inspecting multi-layer protective systems across Dubai and Sharjah job sites.
PosiTest DFT
A budget-friendly dry film thickness gauge for teams that need trusted readings without the full probe ecosystem. The Ferrous model measures non-magnetic coatings on steel. The Combo model measures both non-magnetic coatings on steel and non-conductive coatings on aluminium, brass, and similar substrates, automatically recognising the substrate before taking a reading.
PosiTest PG
A destructive-method paint inspection gauge that measures individual coating layer thicknesses using a rotating cutting tip. Its powerful 50x microscope with precision optics, ideal for coatings up to 1,250 microns (50 mils) thick, depending on the cutting tip used. They are durable anodized aluminium housing and rotating scale, marked in both Imperial and Metric units, making it a practical option for verifying multi-layer systems on any rigid substrate.
PosiTector 200 Series
Ultrasonic gauges for measuring coating thickness on wood, concrete, plastic, and fiberglass, capable of reading up to 7,600 microns (300 mils). The 200 B model is suited to wood and plastic, the 200 C model to concrete and fiberglass, and the 200 D model to thick, soft coatings such as polyurea. The proven non-destructive ultrasonic method conforms to ASTM D6132 and ISO 2808, and Advanced models can measure up to three individual layer thicknesses in a multi-layer system, with a graphic readout for detailed analysis.
Wet Film Gauges
Simple comb-style gauges for checking the thickness of wet paint, enamel, and other films quickly and accurately during application, before the coating has a chance to cure. Which helps applicators catch under- or over-application early.
PosiTest PC (Powder Checker)
A non-contact ultrasonic gauge for measuring uncured powder coating thickness and automatically calculating a predicted cured thickness. Improved sensor technology allows measurement on small tubes, odd shapes, and moving parts, with scan mode continuously taking readings across large areas and up to 4x faster measurement speed than previous models. Its useful for controlling powder consumption and reducing waste on production lines.
PosiTector UTG Series
Ultrasonic wall thickness gauges for steel, plastic, and other materials, with four probe types for different applications. Corrosion models (UTG C, CA, CX) measure the effects of corrosion or erosion on tanks, pipes, and structures where access is limited to one side. The Multiple-Echo model (UTG M) features Thru-Paint capability, reading metal thickness on a painted structure without removing the coating first. The Low Frequency model (UTG CLF) is designed for attenuative materials such as cast iron, while the Precision model (UTG P) delivers high-resolution readings on materials as thin as 0.125mm (0.005").
Testex Replica Tape & Digital Micrometer
Creates a physical replica of a blasted surface, which is then read using a digital or spring micrometer to determine surface profile depth. A range of conventional and optical grade tapes is available, and the Testex Digital Micrometer stores up to 250 readings with on-screen statistics, averaging, and conversion modes. Kits can include three tape grades (Coarse, X-Coarse, X-Coarse Plus) plus a High Accuracy Burnishing Tool with a spring-loaded ball that applies consistent pressure when creating the replica.
PosiTector SPG
Reads peak-to-valley surface profile directly on blasted steel, concrete, and textured coatings using an alumina wear face and tungsten carbide tip for long-term accuracy. Integral and cabled probe versions are available, and the SPG OS probe includes a v-groove and proprietary OD mode for measuring on convex surfaces, confirming the blast profile is within spec before coating starts.
PosiTector RTR
A digital spring micrometer that reads Testex replica tape and records surface profile parameters, using replica tape grade to automatically apply the correct conversion factor. 3D models use imaging sensors to measure peak height and up to fourteen common profile parameters such as Ra, Rz, Sq, and Spd, generating high-resolution surface data files for detailed reporting.
PosiTector DPM Series
Tracks relative humidity, air and surface temperature, dew point, and the difference between surface and dew point temperature, the exact parameters required by ISO 8502-4 before painting begins. Fast-response sensors provide repeatable readings, and SmartTrend indicators flag rising, falling, or stable conditions. Probe options include integral, cabled, infrared, and anemometer versions, with USB, WiFi, and Bluetooth connectivity that is particularly useful given Dubai's shifting humidity levels across seasons.
PosiTector DPM L / L+ (Loggers)
Unattended environmental loggers that automatically record datasets at user-selected intervals for up to 200 days (DPM L) or 600 days (DPM L+), storing up to 10,000 datasets internally. The L+ model adds automatic upload to PosiSoft.net and email alarms when readings exceed defined limits, both requiring a WiFi connection.
