The Scratch Hardness Tester is designed to quantitatively evaluate the scratch resistance and surface strength of coatings, films, and material samples. Using a conical stylus with a variable radius (R 0.005–1.0 mm), the tester applies either continuous or fixed loads to the sample while the stage moves. Scratches can be observed under a microscope or analyzed with optional software for precise quantification of surface durability. This instrument provides reliable, repeatable measurements for both laboratory research and quality control applications.
Standards
(1) JIS K 5600 series – Methods of testing paints
(2) ISO 12137-2:1997 – Paints and varnishes – Determination of resistance to surface scratch

Features
Supports both continuous and fixed load scratch testing.
Sapphire stylus ensures long-term durability and consistent measurements.
ISO 12137-2 compliant for paints and varnishes.
Measures surface fracture strength by progressively increasing load during scratch tests.
Optional data analysis software (Tribosoft) allows precise quantification of scratch resistance and monitoring of load during scratching.
Capable of simulating pencil hardness testing under 750 g load at 45° inclination.
Surface friction (static and dynamic) can be recorded and analyzed for sliding behavior.
Wide applicability from thin films to hard membranes using variable radius stylus.
