Steel Shot Hardness Tester

The steel shot hardness tester measures material hardness by impacting the specimen surface with a standard steel shot at a fixed speed and converting the rebound height into hardness values. It is used to evaluate the impact resistance of metals, plastics, and other materials, and finds applications in industries such as casting and automotive components.
Selection
When selecting, consider the thickness and hardness range of the material being tested, and ensure the impact energy matches the characteristics of the sample. Pay attention to the influence of environmental temperature on measurements and regularly calibrate accuracy using standard blocks. Portable models are suitable for on-site inspections, while fixed models are ideal for laboratory use.
