Metal Pencil Hardness Tester

The metal pencil hardness tester creates scratches on the coating surface at a fixed angle and pressure, and evaluates the scratch resistance of the coating based on pencil hardness grades. It is used for hardness testing of coatings and electroplated layers, guiding product quality control and process adjustments.
Selection
When selecting, consider matching the pencil grade to the hardness range of the material being tested, confirm that the instrument complies with the GB/T6739 standard, check the accuracy of the loading mechanism, observe the flatness of the scratch table, and ensure the repeatability of test results.
