Hardnesstester for metals PCE-2500 Portable hardnesstester with a sophisticated mechanism of loading and firing, for metallic materials, with memory function, portable USB interface, and internal memory of 4,000 values
The PCE-2500 metal hardnesstester is a portable, easy to use, pen-sized meter. The small dimensions and accumulator of the hardnesstester ensure easy operation. The metal hardnesstester excels due to its innovative pencil design with a sophisticated loading and firing mechanism. Hence this metal hardnesstester is ideal for regular testing of metals, where it is necessary to quickly and accurately display the value of hardness. It also allows the user to easily put the hammer on the material. The hardnesstester for metals measures in the following units: Rockwell B & C, Vickers HV, Brinell HB, Shore Leeb HS and HL. The hardnesstester for metals has an internal memory up to 4,000 values.
