Saeco Lead Hardness Tester

A SAECO Lead Hardness Tester will pay for itself many times over by allowing you to convert inexpensive scrap lead of unknown composition into casting alloy of known and reproduceable hardness. It provides a standard by which you can check the quality of purchased cast bullets.

The SAECO Lead Hardness Tester measures alloy  hardness by determining the depth of penetration of a  hardened steel indenter into a bullet. Relative hardness of  the bullet is read off a vernier scale.
