INSIZE ISH-BRV-U Brinell/Rockwell/Vickers Hardness Tester
Are you looking for a versatile, benchtop hardness tester capable of performing Brinell, Rockwell, and Vickers hardness measurements? The INSIZE ISH-BRV-U is built for materials testing, metallurgical labs, and quality-control environments, it combines manual stage elevation with multiple test loads, interchangeable indenters, and a selectable microscope magnification to deliver accurate, repeatable readings across different hardness scales.
Key Features
-
Tri-Scale Testing Capability: Supports Brinell, Rockwell, and Vickers hardness testing in a single machine.
-
Multiple Test Loads:
-
Rockwell: Preload of 98 N (10 kgf), total loads of 588 N (60 kgf), 980 N (100 kgf), and 1471 N (150 kgf).
-
Brinell: Test loads of 306 N (~31.25 kgf), 613 N (~62.5 kgf), and 1839 N (~187.5 kgf).
-
Vickers: Test load of 294 N (~30 kgf).
-
Manual Load Control: Operator controls the loading, dwell, and unloading phases manually.
-
Selectable Microscope Magnification: Offers 37.5× and 75× magnifications for viewing indentations, ensuring accurate measurement across scales.
-
High Resolution:
- Brinell: 0.1 HB
- Rockwell: 0.1 HR
- Vickers: 0.1 HV
-
Large Workpiece Capacity:
- Max workpiece height for Brinell: up to about 165 mm
- Max workpiece height for Rockwell: approx. 180 mm
-
Conversion Scales: For Brinell results, the unit supports conversion into other hardness scales (e.g., HRA, HRB, HRC, HV, etc.).
-
Stage Elevation: Manual stage elevation for accurate placement of the specimen.
-
Robust Construction: Designed to be stable and durable, suitable for lab and shop environments.
-
Dust Protection: Comes with an anti-dust cover to help protect vital components when not in use.
-
Standards Compliance: Built to meet common hardness-testing standards, making it suitable for quality-control usage.
