The Ford cup is a desktop Viscosity Cup, used for laboratory measurement of the viscosity of coatings, paints, etc. The Ford cup has a variety of viscosity detection ranges. This article mainly provides two types of Ford cups with a measurement range of viscosity ≤ 120Cst. For comparison, the Ref.406/2 Ford Cup of the British sheen and the Dutch TQC VF2030 Ford Cup. In appearance, the shapes and materials of the two Viscosity Cups are different, but the other parameter ranges are exactly the same.
