About Benetech GT235 Dual-Mode Coating Thickness Gauge
The Benetech GT235 is a professional dual-mode coating thickness gauge that automatically identifies magnetic and non-magnetic metal substrates. Trusted by automotive painters, quality control professionals, metal processors, and industrial inspectors across Pakistan, this versatile instrument delivers accurate measurements on both ferrous and non-ferrous metals in Karachi, Lahore, and Islamabad.
Unlike single-mode gauges that work only on magnetic substrates, the GT235 automatically detects the substrate type (Fe for magnetic metals like steel and iron, or NFe for non-magnetic metals like aluminum, copper, and brass) and applies the appropriate measurement method. This makes it ideal for facilities that work with mixed metal types.
Why Choose the Benetech GT235 for Coating Thickness Measurement?
The GT235 offers dual-mode capability for both ferrous and non-ferrous substrates, automatic substrate identification for hassle-free operation, high accuracy with 0.1µm resolution for precise measurements, multiple measurement modes (single, continuous, differential), multiple calibration methods (zero-point, offset, basic), and LCD backlight for visibility in any environment.
Key Benefits for Pakistani Industries

GT235 vs GM280F: Which One Do You Need?
- GT235 (Dual-Mode): Works on BOTH magnetic metals (steel, iron) AND non-magnetic metals (aluminum, copper, brass). Automatically identifies substrate type.
- GM280F (Magnetic-Only): Works ONLY on magnetic metals (steel, iron). For non-magnetic substrates, use the GT235.
