Portable 2-in-1 Leeb Hardness Tester (Model ETIPD)
The Leeb Hardness Tester ETIPD is a compact, all-in-one metal hardness testing instrument engineered for professionals who need fast, accurate results in the field or on the shop floor. With its fully self-contained design — impact device and main body integrated into a single 100 g unit — there are no cables or external probes to juggle. Simply point, press, and read your results instantly on the crisp backlit LCD.
Built to meet CE certification standards and complying with GB/T17394, GB/T1172, ASTM A956 & DIN, this tester delivers ±4 HLD accuracy across all six common hardness scales: HLD, HRC, HRB, HB, HV, and HSD. The integrated impact-direction sensor automatically identifies test orientation across a full 360°, eliminating manual compensation and operator error.
Made in Mainland China.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What hardness scales does the ETIPD Leeb Hardness Tester support?
A: The ETIPD supports six hardness scales: HLD (Leeb), HRC, HRB, HB (Brinell), HV (Vickers), and HSD (Shore). All scale conversions are performed automatically onboard, so you can read results in whichever unit your application requires without manual calculation.
Q: Does this hardness tester require external cables or a separate probe?
A: No. The ETIPD is a fully self-contained 2-in-1 design — the impact device (Impact Device D) is built directly into the main body. There are no external cables required for testing. A USB cable is included only for PC data transfer and battery charging.
Q: How is data transferred to a computer?
A: The tester connects to a PC via the included USB cable. Free PC software is bundled with the unit, allowing you to download, record, and analyze up to 500 stored readings (with date and time stamps) directly on your computer.
Q: Does it work in any orientation?
A: Yes. The integrated impact direction sensor automatically detects and compensates for test orientation across a full 360°. Whether you are testing overhead, sideways, downward, or at any angle, the tester adjusts automatically — no manual direction settings are needed.
