What is the hardness of the sintered silicon carbide probe

Our sensor QP015-UDP-SIC is made from sintered silicon carbide (SSiC). Arenal is the only company making ultrasonic sensors with this material.
Is is designed to fit in mineral processing plants and dredging and rilling applications.
It does not wear off.
The Vickers HV 0.5 (according to DINV ENV 843-4) is 2300 GPa
