Push-type duroMeter

The push-type hardness tester works by vertically pressing a spring-loaded needle into the material surface and measuring the indentation depth, which is then converted into a hardness value. It is used to test the surface hardness of soft materials such as coatings and plastics. During operation, the instrument is pushed to slide over a flat surface while readings are taken.
Selection
When selecting, consider matching the material's hardness range with the instrument's measurement range, ensure the indenter type corresponds to the standard, check the flexibility of the push wheel and measurement stability, verify the validity of the calibration certificate, and choose between mechanical or digital models based on the on-site environment.
