Innovative Design
Easy to measure difficult locations
The indenter design makes it ideal for testing inside diameters. Using the
standard indenter, inside diameters as small as 1-1/2 can be tested. An
optional indenter adapter and shortened indenter can test inside diameters
as small as 1/2. The design provides the operator with an excellent view of
the testing location.

Easy Calibration on All Units

The Indentron is easily and quickly calibrated. Advanced electronics allow all scales to be calibrated
independently thus ensuring high accuracy and low cost of ownership.

Large Measurement Envelope

For long life and easy adjustment the elevating screw runs on ball bearings. The vertical capacity is a full 10
and enables large test specimens to be tested. Extended versions with a capacity of 15 are available on request.

Simple Operation
Intuitive electronics allow easy scale selection, scale conversion per ASTM-140,
roundness correction and HI/LO tolerance selection.

Data Output for Quality Control

Standard RS232 output of all measured results to Newages own DataView quality software,
or to other data collection software or devices.

ASTM E-18 Conformance

The Indentron Series conform to ASTM E-18 and ISO 6508.
