Introducing Haag's Newest Gauge: Improving Your Accuracy

Haag Education, LLC proudly announces a new product that will take the guesswork out of estimating replacement panels for steel, aluminum, and single-ply roofing. The Haag Panel and Membrane Gauge™ (HPMG) is the latest addition to Haag's industry-leading collection of tools for today's claim and assessment professionals.

There are a number of steel panel gauges already in the marketplace. However, Haag's HPMG is the first of its kind, engineered for the precision needed to measure some of the thinnest roofing products in use today. Other gauges are capable only of estimating a single type of material — uncoated steel panels — and are therefore inaccurate as estimating tools on most metal roofs during damage assessment. All coatings (including Galvanizing, Galvalume,® and paint) add thickness to metal panels. Even though the differences in these thicknesses measure to the thousands of a decimal, the costs of suggesting a similar, but incorrect, replacement material can run into the tens of thousands of dollars.
