Hardbanding Solutions' new Hardbanding Gauge & Rule gives users a quick "at-a-glance" check of the thickness of applied hardband.

The new gauge is suitable for on-site inspections.  By placing the ruler-like tool on top of the weld, the user can quickly check the height, width and profile of hardbands.  The tool has three different slots for measurement: a 1/32in. slot to determine if re-application is necessary; a 3/32in. slot to show the recommended minimum application thickness, and 1/8in. slot to show the recommended maximum application thickness.

The stainless steel gauge, which is patent pending, includes both metric and English measurements.  It also features a series of steps which allow the applicator to easily set the torch to the proper height.
