The ME-2 Series Rockwell hardness testers meet ASTM E18. They can be supplied in three models: advanced, basic and analog. Each model can be supplied for regular or superficial testing. Combination packages are also available that include both the regular and superficial tester model.
The ME-2RDS Series is our advanced digital tester featuring a resilient dynamic compression loading system and our advanced digital readout. The load system effectively eliminates critical friction points that can contribute to erroneous readings. The advanced digital test head is password protected and can be used to display your hardness result, plus a variety of advanced functions including tolerances, SPC, etc. Save over 2400 results to memory for recall and analysis. Print reports including averages of results and statistical analysis including standard deviations, variations and coefficient of variation, % exceeding +3 sigma, Min/Max results, and % acceptable for a batch. Use the digital readout’s RS232 output with our optional DataView® software for more comprehensive reporting and analysis. This series may also be equipped with optional motorized major load control .
The ME-2RDB Series are equipped with our basic digital test head that displays the hardness result. It is also used to specify scale range, scale selection, and time-at-load (1-99 sec increments). Prompts guide you through the setup process. Tolerances can be applied to your results to indicate OK, High or Low. An internal memory within the digital readout can stored results or use its RS232 serial data output to transmit information to a personal computer. This model can also be used with our optional DataView® software for more comprehensive reporting and analysis using the tester’s RS232 output and a personal computer.
The ME-2R Series measures and indicates the hardness result on the analog dial with direct-reading Rockwell hardness numbers. The dial resolution is 0.1 Rockwell points.

Features & Benefits
- Improve Your Productivity and Testing Efficiency
Loads are applied quickly with no impact effect. And test load and unload can be motorized for optimum testing efficiency.
- Improved Accuracy
A resilient, dynamic compression load system delivers greater accuracy. Critical friction points, typical of dead weight systems, are reduced for improved accuracy and measurement consistency.
- Less Maintenance
The enclosed test head is less susceptible to dirt, oil and airborne contaminants.
- Select the Model for Your Application
Available in three models: advanced digital, basic digital and analog, the ME-2 can be supplied in the format that is perfect for your applications. Plus, we offer a variety of indenters, test blocks, software products and accessories that provide you with a complete testing solution.
