QNix® 1500 – Proven Precision for Vehicle Appraisal
The QNix® 1500 impresses with reliability, ease of use, and durability. For years, it has been the most popular coating thickness gauge in the automotive sector and an indispensable tool for experts, dealers, and appraisers in their daily work.
Are you preparing accident or valuation reports and looking for a reliable coating thickness gauge for vehicle appraisal?
Then the QNix® 1500 is the perfect choice.
Thanks to its 3-point support, the device can be positioned securely and delivers precise measurements – quickly and easily.
The two independent measuring probes automatically detect whether you are measuring on steel, iron (Fe), or non-ferrous metals (NFe) such as aluminum, zinc, copper, or brass.
Like every QNix® device, the QNix® 1500 follows our easy-to-use principle: place → measure → read.
Einfach, zuverlässig und perfekt für den täglichen Einsatz im KFZ-Bereich.
