Pencil Hardness Tester

The PH1100 Pencil Hardness Tester is NK by Neurtek’s benchmark instrument for determining the surface scratch hardness of paints, inks, coatings and varnishes using the Wolff-Wilborn test. Its precision pencil holder ensures a constant pressure of 750 g and a 45° angle throughout the test, eliminating operator-induced variability and ensuring reproducible results. The instrument is […]
Hardness Rod

The PH1200 Hardness Probe is a pen-style pocket hardness tester designed to measure the surface hardness of coatings using the half-ball indenter scratch method. Its compact and handy design makes it the go-to tool for field and production line testing, particularly in the automotive sector, where it is widely used to complement laboratory testing. The […]
PK Pendulum Automatic

The SWINTEK Pendulum is the new coating hardness testing equipment developed by Neurtek; it is fully automated and designed to eliminate operator-induced variability. It determines the hardness of a coating by measuring the damping time of a pendulum oscillating over its surface, in accordance with the Persoz and König methods, the two international reference standards […]
PK Pendulum Manual

The Persoz & König manual pendulum is NK’s benchmark instrument for measuring the surface hardness of paints and inks using the pendulum damping method. Designed and manufactured entirely by NK by NEURTEK, it offers reliable and accurate performance in laboratories requiring robust, easy-to-use equipment with low operating costs. The same basic equipment is compatible with […]
Washability

The Scrubtek NK-WT2300 is the washability and rubbing tester developed by NK to assess the resistance of paints, varnishes and coatings to scratching, wear, abrasion and colour loss caused by wet or dry rubbing. Its compact dual-track design and stepper motor guarantee a linear reciprocating motion at a constant and precisely controlled speed, ensuring comparable […]
