Hardness Tester

The Leeb Portable Metal Hardness Tester PCE-900-ICA measures the hardness of nine different metals using the Leeb rebound method. This means that with the material hardness tester a firing pin bounces on a metallic surface and the intensity of the rebound is used as an indicator of the material hardness. The Portable Metal Hardness Tester measures the metal hardness in 6 different hardness scales.

- Measurement Range: 200-900 HLD / 13-99 HRB / 20-68 HRC / 20-655 HB / 80-940 HV / 32-99 HSD
- Accuracy: 0.80% / Repeatability: 1.10%
- Incl. type D Leeb probe
- Optional Software Available
- incl. ISO Calibration Certificate

PCE-950 is a handheld metal hardness tester used to determine the hardness of 10 different types of metal (i.e., cast steel, hammered steel, cold-rolled steel, stainless steel, cast iron, ductile iron, aluminum alloy, brass, bronze and forged copper alloy) according to the Leeb rebound method. In addition to Leeb hardness units, the metal hardness tester displays hardness measurements in Rockwell C, Rockwell B, Rockwell A, Brinell, Vickers and Shore hardness units.

- Hardness units: HL, HRC, HRB, HRA, HB, HV, HS
- Accuracy: ± 2% / Repeatability: ± 2%
- Impact device: Type D (integrated)
- Data Analysis Software
- For use with hammered steel, cold-rolled steel, stainless steel, cast iron, ductile iron, aluminum alloy, brass, bronze and forged copper alloy metals
