Thickness standards are used to verify the accuracy and operation of coating thickness gauges. As a component of ISO 9000 or in-house quality control procedures, they are a practical alternative to sending instruments to DeFelsko for calibration.
DeFelsko offers various solutions for this process and this group of products is their premium version comprised of 4 Certified polystyrene blocks, intended for probes that measure thick coatings (60 mils / 1500 microns and up)
Select the Standard set that most closely matches the measuring range of your probe. See selection chart under the Description tab.

Each DeFelsko instrument family is factory calibrated and is designed to be ready-to-use upon arrival. Best practice and specifications determine when instruments should have their calibrations rechecked. For the PosiTector UTG probes, DeFelsko offers five different variations of stainless steel Step Blocks that are factory certified for checking their calibration, as follows:
- B1. Standard range Imperial. Five steps (100, 200, 300, 400, and 500 mils).
- B1M. Standard range Metric. Five Steps (2.5, 5, 7.5, 10, and 12.5 mm).
- B2. High range Imperial. Eight steps (1", 1.5", 2", 2.5", 3", 3.5", 4", and 4.5").
- B2M. High range Metric. Eight steps (25, 37.5, 50, 62.5, 75, 87.5, 100, and 112.5 mm).
- P. (Use with PosiTector UTG P probe.) Imperial labeled at 40, 60, 80, and 100 mils. (Metric equivalent 1, 1.5, 2, and 2.5 mm)

The PosiTector® 6000 probe family - DeFelsko's solution for non-destructive coating thickness measurement on metallic* substrates. This is the most extensive range of instrument probes that DeFelsko offers - many versions available for many different applications. Further details as follows:
- Familiar. These interchangeable probes are compatible with the tried-and true DeFelsko Standard and Advanced Gauge Bodies. In addition, all current versions can also be paired with the PosiTector SmartLink / mobile app platform. (Compatibility chart available under the document tab to confirm compatibility on older gages.)
- Versatile. Checks coating thickness in many applications, including:
- Single-handed use (integral probes)
- Cabled probes in various lengths
- Hot / Rugged applications
- Very thin to very thick coatings
- and more!
This page shows probes only. Package options including PosiTector 6000 Standard Gages and PosiTector 6000 Advanced Bodies are shown on their separate pages.
Probes - not the Gage / Bodies - are factory calibrated and each new probe comes with a Certificate of Calibration. For field calibration checks, certified or non-certified standards are available separately (see You May Also Like below.) Contact us for information on probe repairs or probe re-certifications.
*The DeFelsko PosiTector 200 is available for measuring coating thickness on non-metallic substrates.

Thickness Standards are used to verify the accuracy and operation of coating thickness gauges. As a component of ISO 9000 or in-house quality control procedures, they are a practical alternative to sending instruments to DeFelsko for calibration. These Plastic Shims (aka foils) are low-cost alternative to coated metal plates. They are available in Certified (individual shims or full sets) and in Un-Certified sets. Accuracy is somewhat less than metal plates and they are more sensitive to heat. They are intended for use over a Zero Plate, or over an uncoated substrate. A set of un-certified plastic shims is included with most electronic DeFelsko coating thickness gauges. Replacement sets and certified options are available here as follows:
- Un-Certified. These are checked for accuracy within tolerance shown below at DeFelsko, but are not traceable to any standard. They come as a set of 5 only, in the following approximate thicknesses:
- 25 microns / 1 mil (Orange), +- 20% accuracy
- 50 microns / 2 mils (Red), +- 10% accuracy
- 125 microns / 5 mils (Blue), +- 5% accuracy
- 250 microns / 10 mils (Brown), +- 5% accuracy
- 500 microns / 20 mils (Yellow), +- 5% accuracy
- Certified. Includes certificate of calibration traceable to PTB and all are accurate to within 2 microns / 0.08 mils. Available in the following thicknesses individually, or as a complete set of 8 shims:
- 25 microns / 1 mil (Orange)
- 50 microns / 2 mils (Red)
- 75 microns / 3 mils (Green)
- 125 microns / 5 mils (Blue)
- 250 microns / 10 mils (Brown)
- 500 microns / 20 mils (Yellow)
- 1000 microns / 40 mils (White)
- 1500 microns / 60 mils (Black)
- Un-Certified. These are checked for accuracy within tolerance shown below at DeFelsko, but are not traceable to any standard. They come as a set of 5 only, in the following approximate thicknesses:

The innovative and capable PosiTector Gage / Body is the backbone of a large and growing family of DeFelsko inspection equipment. When paired with 1 of the over 10 interchangeable probes, it can measure and store data for common environmental, surface, coating and more conditions. DeFelsko offers two versions of gauges (Standard and Advanced) which can be purchased individually, or in a variety of DeFelsko Body / Probe packages including 1 or more probes, depending on the application. To compare features on the two gage versions, see our PosiTector 6000 Standard and Advanced Body comparison chart. This page shows the Gage Body options only. BlastOne carries all other DeFelsko items including individual PosiTector 6000 probes, PosiTector Standard Body/Probe Kits, PosiTector Advanced Body/Probe Kits, and DeFelsko Coating Inspector Packages. NOTE: This new Gen 5 PosiTector body platform is backwards-compatible with all Positector probes manufactured since 2012.
