NOVOTEST T-U2 is the best price hardness tester in the world that works on UCI (Ultrasonic Contact Impedance) technology.

Unlike the Leeb hardness tester, such as the Leeb Hardness Tester NOVOTEST T-D2 and the Leeb Hardness Tester NOVOTEST T-D3, UCI hardness tester can also be used with small or thin-walled products, as well as parts of complex shape or with areas that need to be tested in hard-to-reach places.

The device with wide functionality and high reliability is UCI Hardness Tester NOVOTEST T-U2. This is a device that has been manufactured by our company for more than 10 years, and has established itself as the most optimal option in the world market for the combination of price – quality.

he Leeb Hardness Tester NOVOTEST T-D2 correspond to to ASTM A956 is the most popular metal hardness testing method in the world, because of very easy to use and does not require special skills from the operator. The probe is mounted on the sample, and by pressing the release button, measurement is performed, and the hardness value is displayed on the device’s screen. The method works well with low alloy steels, stainless steels, as well as non-ferrous metals.

It is usually used for bulk products, without thorough surface preparation and is less sensitive to inhomogeneous or coarse-grained materials.

The Combined Hardness Tester NOVOTEST T-UD2 combines the advantages of two methods: UСI  (ASTM A1038) and Leeb (ASTM A956), which makes it possible to solve almost any task of operational hardness testing. With this device, the user will be able to measure the hardness of both a large products with a rough surface and a small samples of complex shape and with a thin wall.

This modification of the device has all functions for working with various materials and scales, which makes it an optimal device for non-destructive testing of metal hardness.
