UCI Hardness tester alphaDUR III

alphaDUR III is a proven and versatile portable hardness tester that has been used in industry and production for many years.

The instrument can be used for everything from simple manual measurements to automated hardness control in production.

The large color display makes the instrument very easy to use, as all relevant information is clearly shown on the screen. Hardness scale and material can be quickly changed via context-sensitive function buttons.

Measurement is fast and highly accurate. The measurement is displayed immediately after the test load is applied.

Depending on the application and the surface of the specimen, specimen loads between 0.3 and 10 kg can be used.
