Overview
The AMITTARI AS-120NT Hardness pen is a Portable test tool for accurate measurement and recording of various types of Hardness, suitable for the measurement of surface Hardness of various materials such as coatings, plastics, wood or metals.
Features
1. The measurement surface can be flat or curved
2. Not limited by area size
3. Easy to operate, stable performance
4. Easy to carry
Principle
Hardness pen is applied by spring pressure, and the test head contacts the surface of the material to produce a Cedar, and the hardness of materials is evaluated according to the size or depth of the Cedar. The spring pressure range is divided into four specifications: 0~ 3N (blue mark), 0~ 10N (red mark), 0~ 20N (yellow mark) and 0~ 40N (white mark).
Applications
Coating hardness testing, plastic hardness testing, wood hardness testing, metal hardness testing
Steps
1. Select the appropriate range of test pens
2. Align the test head vertically with the tested surface
3. Apply pressure until the preset mark is reached
4. Observe and record the results
5. Evaluate Hardness according to Criteria
Notice
• Choose the appropriate spring pressure range according to the hardness of materials being tested
• Test head diameter is available in 0.5mm (optional), 0.75mm (std.) and 1.0mm (optional)
• Ensure that the test head is in vertical contact with the tested surface
• Regularly check the test head and spring status
• Color markers correspond to different pressure ranges
