The SAECO Lead Hardness Tester is an indispensable tool for reloaders and bullet casters, enabling the conversion of inexpensive scrap lead into casting alloys of known and reproducible hardness. By accurately measuring the depth of penetration of a hardened steel indenter into a bullet, it provides a reliable standard to assess the quality of purchased cast bullets. The tester's vernier scale allows for precise readings of the bullet's relative hardness, ensuring optimal performance and safety in your reloading process.
