Product catalog summary
Technical Description
The LINEARTESTER 249 is an optimized scratch hardness tester designed to evaluate the resistance of surfaces to scratching and other tests such as scribe/scratch, abrasion, crockmeter, and MEK tests. It features a mobile slide with clamping rails, a reciprocating beam for test tools, and adjustable scratching force from 0.5 to 20N, with optional additional weights. The device supports various test speeds and stroke lengths, and it is equipped with an electromotive drive for uniform motion.
Purpose and Application
The tester is used to assess surface damage resistance and perform multiple tests, including scribe/scratch, abrasion, and solvent resistance tests. It allows for side-by-side scratch testing with different force settings and includes electric recognition for through-scratching on insulating coatings.
Version
The LINEARTESTER 249 is a tabletop unit with automatic tool lowering and lifting. It offers a range of test tools, some made of tungsten carbide steel with a hard layer for durability. A universal adapter set is available for user-specific tool inserts.
Order Information
The product includes a hex key, circular level, power pack, and manual. Accessories include load weights, guide plate adapters, variable stroke lengths, and various test tips and attachments for specific tests like MEK and crockmeter.

Technical Description Model 249-2

The optimised scratch hardness tester LINEARTESTER 249 is intended, in addition to its original purpose of application, i. e. to establish the ability of a surfaces to resist damage by scratching, also for several other tests: - Scribe/Scratch tests - To and fro-cycle abrasion tests - Crockmeter tests - MEK tests, tests determining the resistance against solvents in general or wipe test, respectively. Principle of the Test The test panel is fixed onto a mobile slide by means of clamping rails. Above this slide and held on two metal pillars is a reciprocating beam bedded in a free-moving manner...

Technical Description Model 249-4

In addition to the standard range of test tools the Universal Adapter Set allows the use of a variety of additions tool inserts. In this way individual test problems with specific tool geometries deviating from established determinations can be solved in an easy manner. The adapter set consists of the following components: Universal shaft Round rod (5 mm diameter) made of stain-less steel, with an axial bore with internal thread (M2.5) at one end and a clamping area over the total length. The universal shaft is mounted on the load arm vertically; there the adapter described here-after can be...
