Model 318 S

The Models 318/318S/318 C are used to measure the hardness of surface protective layers. The hardness grades of paints, plastic coatings, etc. are measured with these testers. Whether the surface is flat or curved, small or large, these small-sized testers are always ready to use and easy to transport. Anyone who is responsible for quality assurance will appreciate this advantage. The proper curing and constant hardness of the surface protection layer enable a smooth production process. Deviations result in rejects, production delays and complaints. Developed by Robert Bosch GmbH in Stuttgart and manufactured by ERICHSEN, these devices enable quick and easy quality control of surface protection layers – even during production.

Scope of delivery:

• Hardness tester, model 318 S

NEW - ERICHSEN SmartPen - The new generation of mobile scratch hardness testing

For the hardness measurement of surfaces, there are our since many years well-proven hardness test pencils, models 318 and 318 S as well as models 435 and 435 S, already well established across the branches. With these test devices, the degrees of hardness of paint films, plastic coatings, etc. can be determined, named, documented and communicated in numerical values. No matter whether on a flat or curved surface, small or large, the instrument is always ready for use and, because of it’s small size, easy transportable.With the ERICHSEN SmartPen, a modular hardness test pencil with digital test force setting and display (resolution 0.05 N) is now available.
