Metzer · Portable Hardness Testers
Metzer portable hardness testers support applications where moving a component to a bench instrument is impractical. The range covers different test methods rather than a single universal measurement approach. Material, specimen thickness, mass, surface condition and access determine which portable instrument is suitable.
Typical requirements include on-site component checks and inspection of parts that are awkward to handle at a bench. Suitability depends on the selected method and the inspection procedure.

Answers to common questions about portable hardness testers.
Can a portable tester replace any bench hardness test?
No. Different methods have different specimen requirements and result scales. Use the method permitted by the inspection procedure and the component's physical characteristics.
Why do mass and thickness matter in Leeb testing?
The impact response is affected by specimen support, mass and thickness. A component must meet the instrument and method requirements for the test arrangement.
Can hardness values be converted between scales?
Conversions may be available, but their use depends on material and method limitations. A converted value should only be used where the inspection procedure permits it.
What information helps choose a portable tester?
Send the material, approximate mass, thickness, surface condition, test access and required hardness method, together with any data storage needs.
