Applications:

Measuring Principle:

A needle of specific size is hard pressed on to the sample, and the depth of penetration is measured to estimate the hardness of the sample. Barcol impressor is mainly useful in Aluminium processing industry. Formula: HBa=100-h/0.0076, h-indentation depth, 0.0076-constant, HBa-Barcol hardness.
