Yarn
Package Hardness Tester
|
The HP models accurately measure the winding density of textile bobbins, beams, spools,
spindles, cones, quills, dye packages, rolls, etc.
We also offer durometers for rubber and
plastic hardness testing. Click here to view. |

Constant-pressure indicating system assures uniform test
pressure eliminating false readings due to differences between operators
Supplied in a foam-fitted carrying case. |
