Instron Corporation, a provider of testing equipment designed to evaluate mechanical properties of materials and components, announces its Silver series Rockwell hardness testers.
The rugged construction of the testers provides an affordable, dependable solution for hardness testing that can be performed in the harshest environments.
Silver series testers are cost-effective, user-friendly testing machines that provide accurate, reliable hardness testing.
The Silver series includes four models: the RA-1 analogue manual regular scale tester, the MRA-1 analogue motorised regular scale tester, the MRD-1 digital regular scale tester, and the MTD-2 twin scale digital tester.
Regular scale models are designed with throat depths of 165mm and accommodate specimens with heights of up to 170mm, whereas the twin scale MTD-2 has a vertical capacity of 280mm [units converted from US to metric - Ed.].
Each unit is equipped with test blocks and a single diamond penetrator; however, the MTD-2 twin digital tester includes two diamond penetrators.
In addition, Instron provides a full two-year warranty on the Silver series.
