Portable Metal hardness Tester

Portable Hardness testers are designed to be compact and easy to use, for fast testing of metal hardness in situ. Save time and take the tester to the job!

Digital type portable hardness testers use LEEB rebound or Ultrasonic Contact Impedance (UCI) test method to quickly determine metal hardness. Results are automatically converted into common test scales such as Rockwell C, Rockwell B, Vickers, Brinell and MPa tensile strength.

Mechanical type portable hardness testers use an indenter impressor of diamond or steel ball type, similar to those found on a traditional bench-mounted hardness tester. They are a manual instrument where the user applies the test force using a rotary knob and reading the hardness result on the dial indicator.

We specialise in handheld hardness testers and stock a wide variety of options to suit your application. Please contact us to discuss your application so we can specify the right tester for you!
