QH5 U
Portable UCI Hardness Tester for metals
The best option to measure tubes, metal sheets and HAZ
The QH5 U hardness testers are ideal to measure metal plates or sheets, tubes or pipes with small thicknesses, small parts in general, heat affected zones (HAZ) in welds as well as heat treated or hardened surfaces among other applications generating an almost invisible indentation.

UCI Probes
UCI probes allow measurements of small and thin parts and of superficial hardness. They are available with three test loads and choice of the load depends on the surface finish of the test piece.
They offer integrated calibration with CalTag technology to guarantee accuracy.
