Dakota ZX-1 Fixed Velocity UT Gauge

Description

The ZX-1 & 2 are basic fixed velocity gauges that require no special training to operate. Calibration is done by simply scrolling to a known material velocity, or selecting a common material from a list of material types in the ZX-2. The gauges were designed and built to withstand the roughest industry conditions, are affordable, and backed by a 5 year limited warranty. If you’re looking for a quality instrument to reliably meet or exceed your application expectations, look no further.
