M295 Portable Hardness Tester

The completely new generation of portable Wilson Hardness Leeb type M Series testers offer the most affordable but accurate testing solution for on-site testing in workshops and in field operation for quality assurance. Any metal product with a minimum solid mass of 1,5 kg or more can be tested in any hardness scale. Test results appear immediately on backlit display. To maximize friendly use of the instruments on site, the M Series are featured with standard batteries and internal memory with RS-232 output. Seven different impact devices and various support rings allow for testing on a wide variety of part geometries. **This item is not available in the Americas

ACCESSORIES
Impact Device D Universal Standard unit. Perfect for the majority of hardness testing assignments.

Impact Device DC Extremely short impact device. Spring loaded with a special loading stick. Otherwise as for type D. Ideal in very confined spaces, e.g. in holes, cylinders or for internal measurements on assembled machines.

Impact Device D+15 Particularly slim front section and with measuring coil moved back. For hardness measurements in grooves and on recessed surfaces.

Impact Device DL Needle front section diameter 4.2 mm, length 50 mm. Perfect for measurements in extremely confined spaces.

Impact Device C Reduced impact energy (approximately of that for type D). Ideal for surface hardened components, coatings, thin walled or impact sensitive components (small measuring indentations).

Impact Device G Enlarged test tip, increased impact energy (approximately 9 times that of type D). Low demands on measuring surface finish. For measurements in the Brinel range only (max. 650 HB). Ideal for Solid components, e.g. heavy castings and forgings.

Impact Device E

Synthetic diamond test tip (approximately 5000 HV). For measurements in the extremely high hardness range (always in excess of 50 HRC/650 HV). Tool steels with high carbide content inclusions. For measurements up to 1200 HV.

Support rings On curved surfaces having a radius of under 30mm, effective positioning on the component is facilitated by the use of support rings. This ring can be screwed on front of the impact device. Set of 7 rings: Convex: 10-15mm, 14.5-30mm, 25-50mm Concave: 11-13mm, 12.5-17mm, 16.5-30mm Universal: one model
