Spectrographic have been refurbishing used hardness testers for the past 5 years.  These were an addition to our used metallurgical equipment range which include cutters, mounting presses, grinders and polishers. Recently we were asked by one our customers how to adjust a Rockwell hardness tester's  values, as we are so keen to help, we supplied them with a video to demonstrate how it should be done. Please find below our video of adjusting the values of the Rockwell hardness tester. Spectrographic hope that the information on how to do this operation with the hardness tester, was interesting to you. If you have any requirements for a used hardness tester, please contact the Spectrographic team. Email:  sales@spectrographic.co.uk Tel: 01274 966173 Website:  www.spectrographic.co.uk
