Spray coating pencil hardness Tester

The spray coating pencil hardness tester determines the hardness grade by scratching the coating surface with a standard pencil fixed at a specific angle and pressure, based on whether scratches are produced. It is used to evaluate the scratch resistance of surfaces such as paints and inks, and is suitable for quality control in industries such as furniture, automotive, and printed products.
Selection
When selecting, consider the type and thickness of the material being tested. For conventional coatings, choose pencils within the 9B to 9H range. Ensure the instrument complies with ASTM D3363 or ISO 15184 standards. Check that the load weight accuracy is ±0.5g. Prioritize models equipped with a leveling base and pencil clamping device. Choose between manual or motorized feed systems based on the daily testing volume.
