DAKOTA MX-3

This item has been discontinued, click on the link for the alternative - ZX-3

The MX-3 has adjustable material velocity and a scan mode.

The advantages of this gauge include:

  • Precise calibration to your material. Using either a calibration block or a known thickness of your material, simply adjust the reading until they match.
  • The "Scan-mode" improves pitting detection. Just turn on the "Scan-mode" and scan your pipe or tank. The instrument will lock-in on the thinnest point scanned.


With the hand held MX-3 Ultrasonic micrometer, you can make reliable measurements or scan a length of material for the thinnest point. The tool's backlit display is easy to read, even in dim light and the unit operates for up to 200 hours on a single set of batteries. The MX-3 comes complete, ready to use and is protected by Dakota Ultrasonics 5 year limited warranty.
