A wall thickness inspection device includes an electrostatic capacity detector 4 for detecting the electrostatic capacity of a portion of an object subjected to wall thickness inspection, and an arithmetic and control unit for taking in the electrostatic capacity detected by the electrostatic capacity detector 4 and converting the electrostatic capacity to a wall thickness. The electrostatic capacity detector 4 includes a sensor unit 5 brought into contact with the surface of a portion of the object subjected to the wall thickness inspection, and an elastic body 6 for biasing the sensor unit 5 toward the portion of the object. The sensor unit 5 has a curved surface 50 with the radius of curvature R represented by 2 mm ‰¤ R ‰¤ 10 mm. The curved surface 50 is formed by bonding an electrode sheet 7 made of synthetic resin having each electrode pattern formed thereon to a belt-like attachment substrate 51 so that at least the electrode pattern of a measurement electrode from among the electrode pattern of the measurement electrode and the electrode pattern of an earth electrode is positioned on the surface of a curved portion of the attachment substrate 51. |
