The type of coating required and the application method differ depending on
the environment in which the strain gauge
is to be used. In general, if one type of
coating is not sufficient, multiple coatings
can be combined to protect the strain
gauges. At TML, the coating applied
directly to the surface of the strain gauge
is referred to as the first coating, with
subsequent coating layers referred to
sequentially as the second coating, third
coating, etc. Multi-layer coatings are
recommended for strain gauge protection.


MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet) TML supplies an MSDS for all its strain gauge ahesives and coatings. Contact your TML supplier for more information.
