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.
Application
Primary applications:
Quantitative assessment of scratch and surface hardness
Evaluation of coatings, thin films, pressure-sensitive membranes, and hard or soft layers
Determination of surface fracture strength and wear resistance
Laboratory research, material development, and quality control
Typical tested samples:
Paints and varnishes
Polymer coatings
Thin-film materials
Laboratory-prepared samples for hardness and durability testing
Standards
(1) JIS K 5600 series – Methods of testing paints
(2) ISO 12137-2:1997 – Paints and varnishes – Determination of resistance to surface scratch
