King Portable Brinell Testers are accurate to within 1%, calibrated with traceability to NIST, and certified and calibrated per ASTM E10 standards.
Advanced alloys in aerospace require hardness testing of the metal to make sure the metal is meeting relevant quality standards and safety regulations.
Hardness testing of metal in the shipping industry is important in order to maintain consistent integrity of the metal and to ensure the longevity of the metal with prolonged exposure to the marine environment.
Meeting API (American Petroleum Institute) standards for metal hardness in oil and gas applications is important for quality and safety. Portable metal hardness testers are the “go to” solution for the oil and gas industry.
Railway companies depend on portable metal hardness testing to ensure the quality in longevity and safety for both the track and rolling stock
Foundries producing large metal parts for their customers use portable metal hardness testing to ensure consistency meets customer specifications.
Metal hardness testing in automotive moving and wear parts, such as brakes and transmission parts, is important to ensure the highest performance of metal under stress.
Metal used in infrastructure such as roadways and mass transit requires consistency of the metal being in order to ensure longevity. Portable testing is the answer for the field testing.
Utilities count on metal in their equipment, including transmission towers, pipelines and cooling pipes to meet hardness specifications for longevity and safety. Metal hardness testing ensures performance of the metal.
Military applications of hardness testing ensures military equipment is able to withstand the stresses and challenges confronted when used in the field.
Meeting quality standards in construction relies on appropriate and consistent metal hardness which can be easily tested with a portable metal hardness tester.
Manufacturing metal products requires consistency of metal hardness in order to achieve product specifications and meet customer expectations.
As metal is heat treated the hardness changes. Knowing the metal’s hardness and maintaining consistency helps heat treating companies meet desired specifications from their customers.
