how to use reflection to find the data type of a class property

I have a C# class called "equipment" with several defined properties with different data types; such as int, bool, string.  I use Reflection to with a variable name to find the property and set its value from a control's value, but before doing so, I would like to know the property's data type.  How can I do that?

The following is an example of how I set the value:

equipment equip = new equipment();
PropertyInfo piInstance;
for (int i = 0; i < pnlEquipmentDetails.Controls.Count; i++)
{
  . . .
  TextBox tbm = (TextBox)pnlEquipmentDetails.Controls[i];
  piInstance = typeof(equipment).GetProperty("equipmentName"));
  piInstance.SetValue(equip, tbm.Text, null);
  . . .
}

This works well if the type is string, but it the property is of type int, I need to parse tbm.Text.  How can I determine the property's type with Reflection?
