PHT-1800 Hardness Tester

State of the art, digital portable hardness tester is designed to test the hardness of large hard metal parts.
Example: Material under test should be close to 1" thick for accurate and repeatable readings

Loaded with useful functions only found on high priced models the PHT-1800 portable hardness tester is clearly setting a new industry standard by being the most accurate, economically priced portable hardness tester on the market today. Fast test speeds coupled with memory and output, this unit is a hand´s down winner whether you are out in the field or in the QC shop.
The PHT-1800 portable hardness tester can perform tests that easily convert to the most popular hardness scales, including Rockwell, Brinell, Vickers, Shore, etc.

Suitable for the metal hardness test on most materials. Also useful for curved and recessed sample surfaces.
Testing of metal work pieces when the test indentation should be as small as possible, in line with non-destructive testing (NDT).
Determination of the hardness of pre-assembled machines or large steel and cast constructions (e.g. in steel mills).
Metal hardness test in confined spaces along process chains (e.g. in heat treatment shops).
Quick or manually documented acceptance tests and checks of incoming goods.
Off-site metal hardness test (e.g. technical goods purchasing or consulting.)
