EQUOSTAT Hardness Tester

Static Low-load Measurement based on the Rockwell Principle

Accurate, rapid, and reproduceable results from measurement of penetration depth under defined forces and therefore:

• Independence of material (no choice of material curves necessary)
• Independence of body dimensions and geometry
• Measures from one side - no backing necessary

Excellent sensitivity through small penetration of a few um and therefore particularly suitable for:

• Scratch-sensitive and polished surfaces
• Thin parts, profiles and pipes with a wall thickness = 2 mm
• Hardness profile in heat-affected zone of welding seams
