The well known WHB-120 Brinell tester
is designed to make impressions that are used to measure the
hardness of metal.
This universally recognized tester has a number of advantages:
Permanence Impression can be checked and rechecked anytime
Accuracy Calibrated to 0.5 of 1% of load ; Can be used for
higher loads up to 3000 kg
Breaks through surface heat treatment to get to the core of
the material
Versatility Can be used in virtually any position; right-side
up, upside down or sideways
Durability Some portable Brinell testers have been working
over 60 years
WHB-120 Brinell hardness testers are lightweight, easy
to maneuver and require only one operator, making them ideal
for use as portable or bench units. Versatile enough to
test virtually any size and shape of metal specimen.
These Brinell testers are easy to use. The operator simply
places the specimen between the anvil and the test head,
cranks the test head down onto the specimen, locking the
tester in place, closes the pressure release valve, and
pulls the hydraulic ever until desired load is reached.
The tester applies up to a 3000 kg load on a 10mm ball,
making a lasting impression, which is available for re-reading
at any time. A by-pass valve is automatically activated
at the calibrated load, eliminating the chance of overloading.
The impression is then read and recorded by the operator
using a Brinell microscope such as the deep reading microscope
or a Scan automatic Brinell microscope.
The WHB-120 meets all international standards for Brinell
testing.
