Vickers & Knoop Accessories
It’s important to keep the test specimen stationary during set-up and testing. The
correct support will help ensure that the specimen remains motionless.
A wide range of supports are available, whether testing mounted samples, tapered
pieces, small diameter parts, wires or sheet metal. Refer to the Buehler Product
Catalogue to select the appropriate support for the application.
