Linshang as a laser glass thickness gauge measuring tool suppliers, provides two models of glass thickness gauge can be used to detect the thickness of various single-layer glass, double-layer glass, multilayer glass, laminated glass, LOW-E glass, and insulating glass, especially suitable for measuring the installed glass. Doors and windows and the thickness of the glass curtain wall. When measuring the thickness, the thickness of the glass and the thickness of the air layer can be displayed at the same time.

I. Glass that can be Measured with a Glass Thickness Gauge
The glass thickness gauge is used for the accurate thickness measurement of flat glass. Some of glass types that can be measured is as below:
| Triple glazed (IG units) | Double glazed (IG units) | Single pane float glass |
| Low-E glass | Tempered glass | Bronzed glass |
| Tinted glass | Laminated glass | Bullet-proof glass |
II. Application Field of Glass Thickness Gauge
| Glass manufacturers | Glass importers | Window and door manufacturers |
| Window and door importers | Window installers and glazier | Building consultant and inspectors |
| Risk and insurance appraisers | Property directors |
Buildings and automotive window tint company |
III. Glass Thickness Gauge Features
Uses laser reflection pinciples for glass thickness measurements.
Suitable for measuring on Single, Dual, Triple Glazed Units, laminated glass, etc.
It is accurate to measure from either side of the glass, no need to remove the panel and no exposed edges or opening required.
It can also measure the thickness of air space intermediate layers in sealed IG Units.
Simple to use and easy to carry – Just one button to press and read the results.
IV. How to Measure Glass Thickness?
1. Measure triple glazed using LS201 glass thickness meter
LS201 is a digital glass thickness meter, press the "measure" button to measure the thickness of the instrument, and the thickness value will be directly displayed on the screen. We take the measurement of triple glazed glass as an example.
The thickness of glass 1, glass 2 and glass 3 are 5.86mm, 5.93mm and 5.89mm respectively.
The thickness of air space 1 and air space 2 are 12.72mm and 12.63mm.
2. Measure double glazed using LS200 glass thickness gauge
LS200 is a glass thickness gauge that needs to be read by a scale. The thickness of the glass layer is calculated based on the upper scale data, and the thickness of the air layer is calculated based on the lower scale data. We take the measurement of double glazed glass as an example.
The glass thickness of the first layer = A-B = 30-25 = 5mm
The air space thickness = B-C =12-2 = 10mm
The glass thickness of the second layer = C-D = 5-0 = 5mmI
V. Glass can't be Measured with a Glass Thickness Gauge
Glass types cannot be measured or only to a limited extent with a glass thickness gauge:
| Satin-finished glass | Laminated glass with matte | Glass with strongly coloured films |
| Sandblasted glass | Glass with high reflectivity | Glass with interference coating |
