SISCO 2-piece window tint meter uses a split design which consists of a main part (PART I) and an auxiliary part (PART II). The window tint checker is suitable for testing various solar films, automobile glass and installed door and window glass. The window tint checker can measure visible light transmittance, infrared and ultraviolet rejection rates at the same time.
Super strong magnetic force, automatic attraction
Super strong anti-interference ability
SISCO tint meter is used to measure the visible light transmission (VLT) of glass or window films, ensuring compliance with regulations and assessing performance. It is widely applied in the automotive industry for verifying car window tinting, law enforcement for roadside inspections, construction to evaluate building window films, industrial quality control for testing optical materials, and the solar energy industry to assess the effectiveness of tinted or coated glass panels in blocking UV and infrared radiation while optimizing visible light transmission. Its portability and precision make it an essential tool across various sectors.

Q1: What is a tint meter?
A1: A tint meter is a device used to measure the Visible Light Transmission (VLT) of glass or window films. It determines the percentage of light that passes through a window, helping to assess whether the tint meets legal or industry standards. Tint meters are commonly used in the automotive industry to ensure compliance with regulations on window tinting, in law enforcement for roadside checks, in construction for evaluating window films, and in industrial quality control for testing tinted materials. These devices are portable, easy to use, and provide precise readings for various applications.
Q2: Can I use a tint meter on all types of glass?
A2:Â Yes, a Tint Meter can generally be used on most types of glass, including:
However, for accurate readings, the glass surface should be clean and free from obstructions, and the meter should be properly calibrated. Some specialized tint meters can also work with laminated or double-glazed windows, but it's essential to check the device’s specifications for compatibility with specific glass types.
Q3: Are tint meters legal to own?
A3: Yes, tint meters are legal to own in most countries. They are commonly used by professionals, law enforcement, and businesses to measure Visible Light Transmission (VLT) of glass and window films. While owning a tint meter is generally legal, its use may be regulated based on local laws, especially for checking compliance with window tinting regulations. Always check local laws to ensure proper use.
Tips: Can the windshield tint meter be used on curved or irregularly shaped glass?
Yes, a windshield tint meter can be used on curved or irregularly shaped glass. Modern devices are designed with compact and portable features that allow them to fit securely on non-flat surfaces like car windshields or architectural glass. Many models come with automatic alignment or flexible positioning to ensure the meter makes full contact with the glass, which is crucial for accurate measurements. Additionally, some meters are equipped with magnetic adsorption, enabling them to adhere to curved or sloped surfaces for added stability during testing. While most meters can handle curved glass, for extremely irregular or multi-layered glass types, it’s important to check if the specific model is compatible, as such surfaces may require careful positioning or additional setup to ensure precise readings.
