Portable Leeb Hardness Tester.

Portable Leeb Hardness Tester.

The portable leeb hardness tester, commonly referred to as the rebound method, determines hardness from voltages generated by the electromagnetic induction principle. Pressing the button on top of the impact device releases a spring that propels an impact body through...
Brinell Hardness Tester.

Brinell Hardness Tester.

An indenter of hardmetal ball (diameter D) is forced into the surface of a test piece and, after removal of the test force (F), the diameter of the indentation (d) left in the surface is measured. The Brinell hardness is proportional to the quotient obtained by...
Rockwell Hardness Tester.

Rockwell Hardness Tester.

In rockwell hardness tester, an indenter of specified size, shape and material (diamond cone, steel ball or hardmetal ball) shall be forced into the surface of the specimen in two steps under specified condition. The permanent indentation depth, h under preliminary...
Vickers Hardness Tester.

Vickers Hardness Tester.

A diamond indenter, in the form of a right pyramid with a square base and with a specified angle between opposite faces at the vertex, is forced into the surface of a test piece followed by measurement of the diagonal length of the indentation left in the surface...

What is Hardness Testing?

Hardness Testing measures a material’s strength by determining resistance to penetration. The Hardness Test is extremely useful in material selection because it provides a hardness value which indicates how easily a material can be machined and how well the material...
