Hardness Test Kit

The Hardness Test is a pocket device for testing hardness and scratch resistance of coatings, lacquers, plastics, and related materials.

Accurate Hardness and Scratch Resistance Testing for Coatings.

The Hardness Test Kit from NEURTEK is a compact, easy-to-use tool designed for quick and reliable hardness and scratch resistance testing on coatings, lacquers, plastics, and other surface finishes.

Using a tungsten carbide tip that moves over the surface with consistent, adjustable pressure, the kit helps determine a material’s resistance to wear and scratches. A visible mark after testing indicates a failure in surface hardness or coating durability.
