Description

We are supplier & trader of Testex Tape.

Testex Tape is popularly called as Press-O-Film. Press-O-Film provides surface profile of a basted cleaned surface. It can produce virtually exact replicas of the blasted surface profile, which can be measured, using a snap gauge. Testex tapes offers a simple and very accurate method of measuring blasted profiles of surface.

Testex Tape / Press O Film consists of layer of crushable plastic microfoam coated onto a polyster film of highly uniform thickness.

Surface profile gauge or testex tapes can test surface roughness.
