The hand-held moisture meters from Wagner Meters can be used to measure non-wood materials if the
density is similar to wood products. Non-wood species can be measured by using the meter reading as a
relative measurement device such as in “go/no-go” applications, or when determining if one measurement
area contains more moisture than another, i.e. measurements that do not require a high absolute accuracy.
SG formulas can’t be applied to non-solid wood species due to the presence of glues and resins, which
cause a non-linear moisture content curve. If greater accuracy is required, the ASTM oven-dry procedure
can be used to determine a meter correction value for non-solid woods.
