Hardness, Surface Testers

Hardness testing measures the strength of various materials by evaluating their penetration resistance. Samples can be placed directly on bench or stationary types of hardness testing equipment for accurate measurement. Portable hardness testers are compact, multi-scale measurement devices. Their electronic designs go right into the field and allow for the storage of readings. At Transcat, we offer a wide selection of both stationary and portable instruments that deliver valuable information for materials acceptance and quality control. Our expansive dimensional measuring tool selection features hardness measuring tools and surface gages from leading makers such as Mitutoyo, Starrett and Defelsko.
