This portable Leeb hardness tester is made for non-destructive testing of metals. It uses a D-type impact device and shows each result in 7 hardness scales: HLD, HB, HV, HS, HRA, HRB and HRC. It reads 170 to 960 HLD, supports measuring at any angle through 360°, and runs from a built-in 1800mAh rechargeable lithium battery.
Features and benefits:
- 7 scales from one measurement - HLD, HB, HV, HS, HRA, HRB and HRC are shown by the tester.
- 360° measuring direction - vertical down, slant down, horizontal, slant up and vertical up are all supported.
- Display value error ±6% and repeatability of 0.8%, both stated at HLD = 800.
- Material setting - the display shows the material being tested, and with forged steel and the D-type impact device the HB value reads directly with no manual tabulation.
- Data saving and average hardness calculation - readings can be saved and viewed later, and the tester works out the average hardness value.
- 128 x 64 graphic dot matrix LCD with a keypad of OFF/ON, SET/SAVE, DEL, MAT, UNIT and DIR keys.
- 1800mAh rechargeable lithium battery giving about 20 hours of continuous working time, with a 10 minute automatic shutdown.
- PC online connection for real-time data transmission and analysis, plus a Type-C port and a built-in folding stand on the back.
Applications:
- Metal processing and manufacturing checks
- Chemical industry and commodity inspection testing
- Non-destructive hardness testing of steel, cast iron, aluminium alloy, brass, bronze and copper parts

Q: What is a Leeb hardness tester? A: A Leeb hardness tester is a portable, handheld instrument for non-destructive hardness testing of metals. This one uses a D-type impact device and shows the result in HLD or in 6 other hardness scales.. Q: What is the difference between a Leeb and a Rockwell hardness tester? A: This is a Leeb tester, not a Rockwell machine, but it displays Rockwell A, B and C values (HRA, HRB and HRC) alongside HLD, HB, HV and HS. It is a handheld unit with a split design that supports measuring at 360° angles.. Q: Which hardness scales does this tester show? A: It shows 7 scales: HLD (Richter), HB (Brinell), HV (Vickers), HS (Shaw), HRA, HRB and HRC (Rockwell). The keypad includes a UNIT key.. Q: How do you use a hardness tester like this on a steel part? A: Set the material and impact direction on the tester, then take the measurement with the D-type impact device. The tester shows the reading and can calculate an average hardness value.. Q: What metals can this tester check? A: Steel and cast steel, alloy tool steel, stainless steel, grey and ductile cast iron, cast aluminium alloy, brass, bronze, pure copper and forged steel..
