The Testex RTCMIN Replica Tape Coarse Minus Grade (50 pc) is a precision surface profile measurement tape designed for inspectors, applicators, and quality assurance professionals who need to quantify low‐range surface roughness. This Coarse Minus grade Testex Press-O-Film replica tape accurately captures surface peak-to-valley impressions in the 0.5 to 1.0 mils (12 – 25 µm) range — making it ideal for finely blasted or finished substrate inspection.
Using a simple and reliable technique, the compressible foam tape forms a replica of the surface when burnished and then is measured with a precision micrometer or electronic reader to yield numerical surface profile results. Testex replica tape is recognised by international industry standards for surface profile testing, including ISO, ASTM, and SSPC methods — delivering trusted results whether you’re preparing for coating application or verifying surface preparation compliance.
This 50-piece roll is presented in a traditional legacy format compatible with a wide range of analog and digital micrometers as well as PosiTector RTR surface profile readers, providing great flexibility for field or workshop use.
Coarse Minus grade replica tape for low surface profile ranges 0.5–1.0 mils (12–25 µm).
