The Extech MO57A Ball Probe Pinless Moisture Meter quickly detects moisture in wood and common building materials. Its smooth ball sensor glides across surfaces for reliable readings, avoiding pin marks or surface damage. This makes it ideal for finished or delicate materials and situations where intrusive testing isn't allowed. A high-contrast colour LCD with a backlight ensures clear visibility in any lighting condition. Simple icons indicate moisture levels, while an audible alert increases in volume as moisture rises.
