Webster hardness testers, also known as Webster hardness pliers, are the instruments of choice for swiftly assessing the hardness of aluminum alloys right at the production site. They are particularly favored for evaluating the strength of aluminum alloy materials.
The W-20 model of the Webster hardness tester is adept at measuring the hardness of aluminum alloys, including pipes, plates, and various aluminum components, as well as other soft metals. It is instrumental in determining whether aluminum products are properly aged and if they meet the required standards. Furthermore, it can differentiate between various aluminum types and their aging states. Webster hardness testers are exceptionally suitable for on-site testing in mass production environments and sales areas, including for quick, non-destructive evaluations of aluminum profiles, doors, windows, curtains, and walls.
Operating a Webster hardness tester is straightforward: simply clamp the workpiece and read the hardness value directly. Designed for high efficiency and reliability, it adheres to the Chinese non-ferrous standard YS/T420-2000 and the American standard ASTM B647-84 (2000).

5. Hardness Blocks
Use standard Rockwell hardness blocks, with strict accordance to the metrological verification regulations. The number and hardness values with laser etching. Data in the validity can be traced to check. The surface roughness and flatness conform to the requirements of regulations.
6. High-quality
Well parts processed, Precision of machine assembly, High quality inspection, Ensure the equipment of high standard.
7. Stability
Stability with full scale values, Calibration points stability, Pointer no "crawl".
8. Conversion
Attached conversion list through product manual or "hardness conversion" applications, Webster hardness values can be converted to Vickers, Rockwell and Brinell hardness value.
9. Portability
The high quality portable instrument box fits for sponge buffer very well. No only provide portability for instruments but also offer the maximum protection at same time.
W-20 series include three models:
W-20 Webster hardness tester mainly use for inspect aluminum alloy, tube and plate.
W-20a can inspect industrial aluminum extrusions, plates or parts which have the thickness upper limit to 13 mm.
W-20b test small aluminum profiles or aluminum profiles pipes which have the inner diameter over 6 mm.
W-B75, W-BB75 Webster hardness tester inspects copper alloy, and W-B92 Webster hardness tester inspect stainless steel, especially suit for testing the hardness of materials such as mild steel, copper, brass.
