This simple to use gauge consists of a spring loaded plunger which, when released, strikes the surface with fixed and constant impact energy. During the rebound stroke, the mass moves a pointer that indicates the maximum point of return and at the same time indicates a reference value called Rebound Number.

This number, converted by the correlations available on the hammer, gives the compression resistance value in respect of the impact angle.

  • Impact Energy 2.207 Nm

  • Supplied with abrasive stone to prepare test surface

  • Aluminium body

  • Rebound value indicated on test hammer

  • Rebound value chart on body, for quick calculation of compressive strength

  • Curve selection on chart dependant on testing angle

The concrete hammer, often called a rebound hammer, is supplied with plastic carrying case, grinding stone, calibration certificate and instructions.

Can be used in accordance with:

  • ISO 8045

  • ASTM C805

  • EN 12504-2

  • BS 1881:202

  • DIN 1048

  • NFP18-417

  • UNI 9189
