The pendulum hardness test is based on the principle that the amplitude of oscillation of a pendulum touching a surface decreases more rapidly the softer the surface.
STANDARDS:
ISO 1522, ASTM D4366, NBN T22-105, BS3900 E5
Product Description
Two types of Pendulum are available. Both are based upon the same principle but differ in respect of dimensions, period and amplitude of oscillation.The type of pendulum that is supplied depends on what has been ordered.
