The Bareiss HP mechanical hardness tester for Shore is still as modern and precise as it was 50 years ago.
Bareiss has built the evergreen of hardness testers in a nearly unchanged design since 1954. Having sold more than 100 000 units all around the world, it is the most frequently used manual harndess tester.
The entire chassis of HP is made of aluminum which provides light weight and durability. Every unit of HP is carefully assembled and calibrated by Bareiss technicians. To avoid indenter traveling with friction, Bareiss adopt the technique by combining different sizes of balls in the bearing to help smooth the indenter traveling.
Bareiss HP Series is available in different Shore and non-Shore scales and with the possibility of customized presser foot to suit different requirements.
