Portable Hardness Testing Impact Devices
There are 7 Types of portable hardness testing impact devices that are available for all mitech portable hardness testers and their special applications.
| Impact Device D | |
| Universal standard unit, for majority of hardness testing | |
| Imapct Device DC | |
|
Extrmely short impact device,spring loaded with a special stick. Used in very confined spaces, e.g. in holes,cylinders or for internal measurements on assembled machines. |
| Impact Devices C | |
![]() |
Reduced impact energe, appoximately 1/4 of D type. Applications: surface hardened components, coatings, thin walled or impact sensitive components (small measuring identation). |
| Impact Device D+15 | |
![]() |
Particularly slim front section and with measuring coil moved back; Hardness measurements on grooves and on recessed surfaces |
| Impact Device DL | |
![]() |
Needle front section, diameter 4.2 mm, length 50 mm, measurements on extremly confined spaces. |
| Imapct Device E | |
![]() |
Synthetic diamond test tip (approximately 5000 HV), For measurements on extremly high hardness range (always in excess of 50 HRC/ 650 HV), tool steels with high carbide content inclusions. For measurements up to 1200 HV. |
| Impact Device G | |
| Enlarged test tip, increased impact energy (approximately 9 times that of type D), low demands for measuring surface, for measurements in Brinell only (Max. 650 HB). Applications: solid components, e.g. heavy castings and forgings. |
