barcol hardness tester 934 1

It is also used to test FRP (glass fiber reinforced plastics), hard plastics, etc.

The improved Barcol hardness meter can be used for softer plastics, very soft metals, leather, rubber, etc.

Related standards: ASTM B648, GB/T3854-2005, ASTM D2583-07.

Characteristics
1.   Standard Barcol hardness tester is a portable indentation hardness tester.
2. Single hand operation, operating experience required can test any operating experience which is reachable in any site
3. Wide valid testing range equivalent to Brinell hardness 25-135HBW, used to test the hardness of all kinds of aluminum from very soft aluminum to very hard alloys.
4. Barcol hardness tester has a wide range of application. Model 934-1 can be used to test aluminum and aluminum alloys, copper and copper alloys, glass fiber reinforced plastics, rigid plastics, etc. The improved type can be used to test lead, tin and other soft metal, and flexible plastics, rubber, felt, leather, and so on.
5. With 100 scales, our Barcol hardness tester is of higher sensitivity than commonly used Webster hardness testers in aluminum alloy industry.
6. It could finish the testing work on one side of the workpiece, without trouble of moving or supporting the workpiece. Due to this feature, the hardness tester can be used to test extra large, extra thick workpieces and assembly parts.
7. By use of the conversion table, the test results can be easily converted to HB, HR, HV and HW.
8. It conforms with GB/T3854-2005,America ASTM B648-2000 Standard.
