Portable hardness testers

  • Portable hardness testers
The WH Series of hand-operated Webster-type hardness testers feature fast and accurate measuring action.

The portable instruments are ideal for the hardness testing of thin, soft materials under shopfloor conditions. With several models available, in a choice of measuring capacities, Bowers' robust hardness testers are suitable for use across a wide range of materials, including aluminium alloys, brass, copper and soft steel.

Each WH Series tester is packed in a strong industrial box that includes all standard accessories including a set of tools, a hardness standard and a spare indentor.

The hardness testers give precise readings, independent of the operator's skill, while the units' easy-to-read dial indicators permit use of the testers as 'go' and 'no-go' gauges.

All the instruments within the range offer readings in Vickers, Rockwell and Brinell hardness values.
