Hardness

Scratch Hardness Tester 239

acc. to Clemen


A weight loaded blade or ball shaped carbide tool is applied with a defined force (0 - 20 N) to the specimen which is moved with constant speed. The scratch hardness is measured by the force necessary to cut through the coating to the substrate. Available for manual or motorised drive.

 

Indentation Hardness Tester 263

acct. to Buchholz - ISO, BS, DIN, NF, ECCA


A steel block with circular indented inserts is applied onto the test surface and produces a pressure mark, the length of which is measured with a microscope. The impression hardness in accordance with Buchholz is established from the length of the impression, using the standard table.

 

Scratch Hardness Tester 291

NEN, SIS, SNV, ECCA


Pencils of increasing hardness are pushed across the surface of the coating at a defined angle and under a defined load. The film hardness is established by the two hardness grades between which there is a limiting effect of surface marking and indentation into the surface.

 

Pendulum Hardness Tester 299/300

ISO, ASTM, BS, DIN, NEN, SIS, SNV


Damping of the oscillations of a pendulum resting on the coating material in accordance with the standards. Koenig and Persoz pendulum interchangeable. Dust cover included in the basic unit. Optional accessories: Opto-electronic counter with acoustic signal at test end with manual or automatic deflection of pendulum.

 

Hardness Test Rod 318

 


This successful and extremely useful scratch hardness tester is in the form of a pocket instrument. Also for tests on curved surfaces. Carbide ball tip, diameter alternatively 0.5/0.75/1.0 mm. Spring force 0 - 20 N divided into 3 measuring ranges.

 

Universal Scratch Tester 413

ISO, DIN, EN


For various scratch hardness tests, e.g. in accordance with the process used in the industry making plastic panels. 5 different tools with diamond or carbide scratching tip. Force range: 0.1 - 10 N.

 

Mar Tester 435

acc. to Oesterie


Pocket instrument for scratch resistance (mar resistance) of painted or plastic surfaces. Test body (plastic, copper or steel disc) is applied with a pre-set force and drawn across the test surface. Spring force 0 - 20 N divided into 3 measuring ranges.
