Push-type Hardness Tester

Push-type hardness testers use a spring to drive a needle vertically into the material's surface, converting the penetration depth into a hardness value. They are used to measure the surface hardness of soft materials such as coatings and plastics, and are applied in coating drying tests and product quality control.
Selection
Select the appropriate indenter size based on the hardness of the material being tested, and consider the sample thickness to ensure sufficient support. Verify that the instrument's measuring range matches the material hardness, and confirm that the indenter travel meets the testing requirements. Check the calibration certificate to ensure data accuracy.
