The Elcometer 406L Statistical Mini Glossmeter is a handheld gauge for measuring the gloss of flat surfaces. This gauge is available in two versions; single angle measurement 60º or dual angle 20/60º.

Gloss is measured by directing a constant power light beam at an angle to the test surface and monitoring the reflected light. Gloss measurement is necessary to monitor the uniformity, compatibility, or possibly the deterioration of any protective gloss finish.

The Elcometer 406L Statistical Mini Glossmeter is supplied with Novo-Soft™ software.

  • Dual Angle
    • Measure at 20° and 60° angles.

Test method:

Gloss is an important aspect of coating fininsh. In order to allow comparison of measurement values an international standard was established. To identify a difference over the complete range from matt to high gloss, 3 geometries are used; 20°, 60° and 85° measured perpendicular to the surface being inspected.

Gloss Range 60° Value Angle Of Geometry to use
Low Gloss less than 10 85° Geometry
Semi Gloss 10 - 70 60° Geometry
High Gloss greater than 70 20° Geometry

In addition there are industry specific applications for 45° and 75° geometries which are indicated below 

     45° 20° 60° 85° 75°
Industrial Applications Ceramics Coating Finishes, Plastics, etc, Paper, Printing, etc.
