TRIPLETT CTT42 Coating Thickness Tester
The TRIPLETT CTT42 is a digital coating thickness tester designed for measuring paint and plating on ferrous and nonferrous metal substrates. It suits inspectors, finishers and quality personnel who need portable, non-destructive verification of dry-film thickness in the shop or field. The magnetic induction and eddy-current method covers both metal types without probe changes.
Measurement range 0 to 49 mil
The instrument reads from 0 to 49 mil with a resolution of 0.004 mil and 0.1 micron. Stated accuracy is ±3 percent. Up to 400 readings can be stored internally for later review or export. The range covers typical industrial and automotive coatings; very thick plasters or specialised linings beyond 49 mil fall outside the measurable span.
Digital display USB output and included standards
A digital display presents values directly and the USB cable enables data transfer to a PC for reporting. The kit includes calibration aluminium, calibration iron, precision standards and a soft carrying case. The tester is not supplied with a calibration certificate, so users requiring traceable documentation must arrange third-party certification. California Proposition 65 warnings apply.

Questions about this item
Will the CTT42 work on the same ferrous and nonferrous parts I measure with my older magnetic gauge?
Yes, the CTT42 uses magnetic testing and is compatible with both ferrous and nonferrous metals, so it covers the same material types as older magnetic gauges.
How can I verify the CTT42 reads accurately after I set it up?
Use the included calibration iron and aluminum precision standards; the digital display should show values within the stated ±3 % accuracy at 0.004 mil resolution.
Does the CTT42 come with everything needed to start measuring, or do I need extra probes?
The box includes the tester, calibration iron, calibration aluminum, precision standards, soft carrying case and USB cable — no extra probes are required.
