Product Description
BYK Drawdown Bar film applicators are the highest quality and easiest to clean and maintain due to their simple design and rugged construction. The theoretical wet film thickness is etched onto every drawdown bar. The theoretical wet film thickness is roughly one-half the actual gap clearance. If you have a gap clearance of 6 mils, the theoretical wet film thickness etched on the bar applicator is 3 mils. We can not guarantee that you will drawdown the theoretical wet film thickness. The drawdown process consists of many variables. The actual wet film thickness can vary from 50% to 90% of the gap depending on the gap clearance.
~ Every drawdown bar is certified in our lab and comes with a calibration certificate
~ Packaged in a handy reuseable storage box to help prevent damage
~ Made of 440-grade stainless steel, ground to tight tolerances for repeated use
The bar applicators are designed for easy cleaning and maintenance
