Schmidt Original Concrete Test Hammer Type N

The original Schmidt® hammer, type N, works for non-destructive testing of concrete items 4″ (100mm) or more in thickness, or concrete. Designed for testing concrete within a compressive strength range of 1,450 to 10,152 psi. As well as impact energy of the test in 1.6 ft-lbs (2.207 Nm). The (type N) Schmidt hammer presses against the concrete structure while the rebound values display on a mechanical sliding scale. These values can then be correlated to compressive strength by using the conversion table chart affixed to the hammer. The original Schmidt hammer is known for its durability and accuracy.
