The Dakota Ultrasonics PR-9 Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge Z-309-0001 / Sonic Tester Racing with T-104-2120 Probe is commonly used to measure the thickness of cylinder walls, head ports, decks, chassis tubing, body panels, and windshields. An additional benefit is the dual element style of probe with the ability to locate blind surface corrosion or deterioration on the blind surface in the water jacket area prior to boring a cylinder or port. The high speed scan feature takes 100 measurements per second to save time when scanning a complete cylinder. Simply drag the probe from the bottom of the cylinder, at a given clock position in the cylinder, up to the deck area to locate the minimum thickness found. Scan can then be switched off and the user can find the exact location of the minimum thickness.
Extruded aluminum body with nickel-plated aluminum end caps (gasket sealed).
Keypad
Sealed membrane that is resistant to both water and petroleum products. Nine tactile-feedback keys.
