MIC 10-DL Hardness Tester
The MIC 10 portable hardness tester weighs less than 11 ounces and operates on 2 standard 'AA' batteries to provide easy transporting and on-site testing. Operation based on the UCI Principle allows testing in any direction.
A selection of interchangeable probes are available having loads from 0.3 to 10.0 kg to vary the indentation size from one that can not be visually detected to a larger indentation required for testing coarse grain materials.
