Impact Hardness Tester

The hand-operated hardness tester drives a punch to impact the material surface via a spring, and converts the rebound height into a hardness value. It is used for rapid on-site testing of the surface hardness of materials such as coatings and plastics, and must be held perpendicular to the test surface during operation.
Selection
When selecting, consider matching the material hardness range with the punch type: use tungsten steel punches for metal materials and specialized punches for plastics. Choose mechanical or digital models based on testing accuracy requirements. Pay attention to the protection level in humid on-site environments. Regularly calibrate standard blocks to ensure data reliability.
