Single-Sided Bird-Type Film Applicator
Single-slot Bird-type paint film applicator

The TQC Sheen single-sided Bird-type film applicator is a professional test instrument designed to perform precise and repeatable coating applications at a defined film thickness. Thanks to its single application surface, it provides high accuracy in tests requiring a constant thickness.
With film width options of 50 mm, 75 mm and 90 mm, it is ideal for use on flat and rigid surfaces. It is widely preferred in quality control and R&D applications for paint, coating, ink, and adhesive systems.
Manufactured from high-quality stainless steel, it is resistant to acids and bases, ensuring long service life. Its single-thickness-focused design offers a more economical and practical solution compared to multi-sided applicators.
Unlike multi-sided film applicators, single-sided Bird-type applicators provide maximum precision at a specific thickness, making them an ideal choice for standardized testing processes.
