Designed for accurate, rapid in place measurement of the hardness of steel and steel alloys in the range from 20 to 65 on the equivalent Rockwell C Scale
Unit consists of two major components: calibrated indenter and direct reading microscope
Hand-held impact indenter drives a 1/16" diameter tungsten carbide ball into the sample being tested
Resulting indentation diameter is measured with 60X microscope
Calibrated reticle in the microscope reads C Scale directly with an accuracy of ±1.5 points
Illumination system features a MagLite® flashlight with a fiber optic pipe that directs the light to the focus of the microscope
Flat or curved surfaces of virtually any configuration may be measured
Particularly useful where the test piece is too large or too heavy to test on bench-type tester
REED R9030 Hardness Tester with ISO Certificate – Analogue, HL, HRC, HRB, HRA, HV, HB, HS, HLD (170 to 96), HRA (59 to 85m), HRB (13 to 100), HRC (20 to 68), HB (19 to 651), HV (80 to 967)
