High-Accuracy On-Site Hardness Testing Using the Vickers Method

https://qualitest.gy/advanced-ndt-services/Vickers Hardness Testing is a microhardness technique that provides a very accurate measurement of surface hardness, particularly in thin materials, small components, and delicate weld zones. It is widely used for metallurgical assessments, post-weld heat treatment verification, and material condition evaluation in high-spec applications across the energy and offshore sectors.

Our portable Vickers testing equipment allows us to perform inspections directly at the job site with minimal disruption to operations.


Where Vickers Testing Is Applied

Our Vickers hardness testing is commonly performed on:

  • Weld overlays and narrow heat-affected zones (HAZ)
  • Pressure vessel materials and piping systems
  • Chillers, boilers, and heat exchanger tubes
  • Stainless steel and corrosion-resistant alloys (CRA)
  • Fabricated assemblies and structural joints
  • Small machined components or samples taken from critical areas

This method is especially beneficial for validating the hardness of precision welds, cladding, and thin wall materials used in offshore platforms and refinery equipment.


Benefits of Vickers Hardness Testing

  • Highly accurate and repeatable results
  • Suitable for small areas and thin sections
  • Ideal for laboratory and field applications
  • Supports failure analysis and welding qualification
  • Conforms to ASTM E384, ISO 6507, and other global standards

Performed by Certified Professionals

All hardness tests are conducted by certified and experienced NDT technicians, trained in microhardness testing techniques. We use calibrated portable Vickers hardness testers and ensure all inspections meet stringent industry requirements. Clients receive fully documented test reports, complete with digital records, photos, and hardness mapping where required.
