Hardness gauges are designed to measure the hardness of both metallic and non-metallic materials in industry, workshops, quality control, and laboratories. The range covers a wide variety of instruments for different materials, hardness ranges, and measuring methods. The group includes hardness gauges for non-metals that measure the hardness of materials such as plastics, rubbers, elastomers, and composites at different Shore scales (e.g., Shore A, Shore D), which involves the probe penetrating the surface of the material, leaving a small mark. The group also includes hardness gauges for metals, which measure the hardness of metals and alloys using various methods and scales, such as: - Rockwell - Brinell - Vickers - Leeb (dynamic hardness) Metal hardness gauges are suitable for both field and laboratory use and allow for hardness measurement on large or stationary objects. Many digital gauges have advanced functions such as tolerance measurement, averaging and maximum value calculation, storage of measurement results, and data transfer via USB or other interfaces. Accessories such as reference materials, indentation gauges, and test stands are available to improve the accuracy and repeatability of measurements. Typical applications: - Hardness measurement of metals and alloys - Hardness measurement of plastics, rubbers, and elastomers - Quality control and comparison of batches of materials - Production monitoring and control measurements - Laboratory and workshop use |
