Barbieri C041C50 FAQ
Is an extended warranty available?
Yes. The C041W00 extended warranty adds 2 years to a Spectro Swing, for a total of 3 years.
Which aperture does the C041C50 have?
Barbieri makes the Spectro Swing qb with a 2 mm or a 6 mm aperture. The January 2026 price list shows one code, C041C50, and Barbieri Color Solutions’ store lists C041C50 as the 6 mm model. Please confirm the aperture with DTG before you order.
What is the difference between the 2 mm and 6 mm versions?
Barbieri recommends the 6 mm version for textured, grainy or non-uniform materials such as canvas, wallpaper and decorative papers, and the 2 mm version when small patches and compact chart layouts matter most.
Can the Spectro Swing qb measure thick or rigid materials?
Only up to 1.2 mm thick. For samples up to 20 mm, Barbieri makes the Spectro LFP qb.
Where do these details come from?
From Barbieri Color Solutions’ January 2026 US price list and Barbieri’s product pages. Ask DTG if you are not sure which Barbieri part fits your instrument.
