The Testex RTC6 Replica Tape Coarse Grade – 6 × 50 pc with Burnishing Tool is a professional surface profile measurement solution designed for coating inspectors, applicators, and quality assurance teams. This bulk pack includes six cartons of coarse-grade Testex Press-O-Film replica tape and a high-accuracy burnishing tool — providing everything you need to quickly and reliably capture surface profile impressions on grit-blasted or roughened surfaces.
Testex replica tape uses a proven technique: press the compressible foam tape onto the surface, burnish to create a surface impression, and measure the compressed thickness using a micrometer or electronic reader to determine peak-to-valley surface profile. Trusted and recognised by ISO, ASTM, SSPC, and other industry standards, this method offers repeatable and accurate results with minimal preparation time.
Whether you’re inspecting structural steel, pipeline coatings, or industrial surfaces, the RTC6 kit ensures you always have sufficient strips on hand for frequent testing. It’s ideal for field use, reporting, quality control programs, and compliance verification before coating applications begin.
