The GE Magna-Mike 8500 Hall Effect Precision Thickness Gage is a handheld thickness gage that utilizes a magnetic method to make reliable and repeatable measurements on nonferrous materials. Operation of the Magna-Mike 8500 is very simple. Measurements are made when its magnetic probe is held on one side of the test material and a small steel target ball is placed on the opposite side. A Hall-effect sensor built in the probe measures the distance between the probe tip and target ball. The measurement is instantly displayed as an easy-to-read digital thickness reading.
The 80TB3 Baker Hughes 3/16" Magna-Mike Target Balls (Quantity of 75) may still be available for purchase and support from Artisan Technology Group beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).
Functions
Steel spherical targets engineered for ultrasonic wall thickness measurement systems operating on magnetic coupling principles. Functions as reference reflector positioned on opposite surface of test material, enabling precise thickness calculations through time-of-flight measurements. Interfaces with handheld probe containing electromagnetic transducer via magnetic attraction through non-ferromagnetic materials. Compatible with thickness gauges featuring magnetic probe configurations for measuring materials including plastics, glass, rubber, ceramics, and composites. Operates across 0.0001-0.2500 inch measurement ranges with ±1% calibrated accuracy. Applications include quality control inspection of injection molded parts, glass containers, aerospace composite structures, and corrosion monitoring of non-ferrous tanks and vessels where single-side access limits conventional ultrasonic methods.
Platforms
Designed for use with Magna-Mike 8000 series thickness gauges to measure the thickness of non-ferrous materials. The target ball is placed on one side of the material being measured and a magnetic probe is placed on the other side. The gauge measures the distance between the probe and the target ball.
Applications
Designed for gauging wall thickness using a magnetic probe in conjunction with the Magna-Mike ultrasonic thickness gauge. Operates within a thickness range of 0.0001 to 0.2500 inches with a calibrated accuracy of ±1%. Utilized in circumstances where precise non-destructive measurement of material thickness is required, often in manufacturing or quality assessment settings. Each ball functions as a target for the probe, providing reliable thickness readings when measuring non-magnetic materials. Comes with a storage container for organized handling and transport.
