Take the tester to the job. TH-170 TIME5100 series portable hardness testers are ideal for use in applications where bench mounted hardness testers can't be used.  The TH-170 is powered by AAA batteries and has onboard memory making it ideal for use in the field or on the factory floor.

Using rebound technology, results are measured in the LEEB Scale (HL) which can then be converted and displayed directly in common scales: Rockwell C, Rockwell B, Brinell, Vickers & MpA. Metals that can be tested include Steel, Stainless steel, Aluminium, copper and other variations.

TH-170 (TIME5100) - Standard unit for general testing

The TH-170 uses a D type impact device for general purpose testing of metal samples greater than 5mm thickness.  

TH-172 (TIME5102) - Thin material

Featuring a C-type impact device and a lighter impact force the TH-172 can test surface hardened components, coatings and thin walled components from 1mm thickness, provided they are coupled.  Samples that are not coupled can lose rebound energy through vibration which can result in a lower hardness reading.  

TH-174 (TIME5104) - Needle Point for hard to reach Testing

To test in hard to reach locations we recommend the TH-174.  The needle point indenter is ideal for accessing deep recessed and other narrow shaped surfaces such as teeth on gears, o-ring grooves or any notched or stepped parts.
